An outstanding rig by the notable Forest River RVs, the 2023 Americas Cabin Series Park Models 28SHL 2023, captures anyone's attention due to its stellar construction, eye-catching exterior, pleasantly designed interior, comprehensive standard equipment, and various astonishing utilities. As a Destination Trailer categorized RV, it has been specially built for setting up at fixed locations rather than road-tripping. I will be exploring the impressive features and advantages of this model, to give the readers an understanding of its worth.
One of the commendable aspects of this Park Model is its solid construction. This RV is set on a sturdy Solid Steel Dual I-Beam Chassis and detached hitch, ensuring durability and stability. The double perimeter floor joists give the rig additional strength, and the integrated steel strapping construction guarantees steadfastness.
The exterior of this stunning RV is marked by white thermopane windows with Low-E glass for high energy efficiency. Sporting a traditional cabin design, it features 12” front and rear overhangs, 8” sidewall eaves, and a green metal roof that distinctly contrast with the cement lap siding in a mahogany color. Moreover, the “cabin” style porch light and a 36” exterior front door with an internal blind enhance the aesthetics, giving it a classic yet modern appeal.
Once you enter inside this model, you would be floored with its hardwood interior including passage and pocket doors. The walls and the ceiling of the trailer are covered in tongue and groove pine which complements the pine trim throughout the RV. High sidewall height of 90", cathedral ceilings (except loft), and windows with 2” white faux wood blinds make for a spacious, well-lit interior. Additionally, brushed satin fixtures throughout, along with vinyl plank flooring and a vinyl mop board, give the interior a classy finish.
Equipped with a queen mattress with box springs, bunk mattresses in bunk rooms, a 2-cushion hide-a-bed sofa, dinette table with 4 chairs, and a kitchen with high-definition laminate countertops and stainless steel sink, the 28SHL provides all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The appliance package includes a 10 cu. ft. frost-free 2-door refrigerator/freezer to store perishables.
It's also worth noting the efficient utility systems like a 50-amp electrical system, a 20-gallon electric water heater, and individual thermostats for radiant heat, making this model efficient for longer stays. The RV showcases exceptional insulation with R-14 batten insulation in the floor, R-11 in the walls, and a whopping R-22 in the roof. This ensures optimized energy use and comfort in various climates.
In conclusion, the 2023 Americas Cabin Series Park Models 28SHL 2023 is full of features that make it a suitable choice for anyone looking for an RV, whether for a quick holiday or a longer stay. With an MSRP of $85839, it's a worthy investment bringing a blend of comfort, performance, and aesthetics.

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
