While there are many travel trailers currently in the market, the 2024 Passport SL Series Travel Trailers 229RK has attracted my attention. Not only does it deliver on functionality, but it also exudes an undeniable and appealing aesthetic.
One of the first things that caught my attention is the exterior makeup of this travel trailer. Its seamless, laminated, and gel-coated filon exterior strip down to the base, ensuring durability. The power tongue jack and a rear ladder make sure that storage and accessibility are a breeze. Moreover, safety is not compromised as it features an 80 percent tinted safety glass windows which also add a stylish touch to its exterior appeal.
Moving indoors, the interior resonates with comfort and luxury. The residential durable Beauflor vinyl flooring is not only stylish but also sturdy, capable of withstanding heavy foot traffic. This is perfectly complemented by Artic Teak woodgrain cabinetry and upgraded furniture, which give the interior a homely and comfortable vibe. The lighting fixtures are all LED and well-spaced, creating a well-lit and warm atmosphere.
The kitchen area is just as impressive. The seamless kitchen countertops matched with the stainless steel sink and pull-down faucet are not only functional but also easy on the eye. The U-shaped dinette is perfect for family meals and also doubles up as an extra space for your comfort.
When it comes to utilities, this travel trailer checks all the boxes. It features modern facilities such as a Girard Tankless Water Heater, 13,500 BTU A/C, and a 30,000 BTU Furnace. In addition, it has a 12 Volt AM/FM stereo with AUX input, Bluetooth, and quality sound speakers for entertainment purposes. The bathroom and bedroom area are equally impressive, featuring residential-style amenities that make you feel right at home.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
