The Berkshire XLT Series Class A Motorhomes 45B 2021, produced by Forest River RV, is a marvel to behold. This luxury motorhome is designed to offer the best in comfort and convenience, providing a high-end living experience for its occupants. As the 2021 version of the highly acclaimed Berkshire XLT Series, it's not simply a motorhome, but a statement of class and sophistication.
Right off, the 2021 Berkshire XLT is powered by a Cummins ISL 450HP engine with 120V engine heater. Paired with an Allison 3000MH 6-speed transmission, it doesn't just promise trips, yet smooth ones. To add an additional edge, it also comprises a 150-gallon dual fuel tank, guaranteeing long travels without refueling interruptions.
Equipped with a Freightliner XCR Raised Rail Chassis, 7-Pin tow power connector, Michelin front and rear tires, and Sachs custom-tuned shock absorbers, this vehicle has a durable and capable frame. It also has automatic, heated moisture ejectors, a noteworthy safety feature that ensures visibility in adverse weather conditions.
The Class A Motorhome from Forest River exhibits fiberglass front and rear caps, giving it an attractive and stylish look. It's painted entirely, culminating in an eye-catching and appealing exterior. Dark-tinted, frameless dual pane windows not only enhance its luxury feel but also serves to keep the inner temperature in check.
The highlight here is not just the rugged, well-structured exterior, but the meticulously designed interior too. Featuring polished porcelain tile throughout, semi-gloss hardwood cabinetry, and a "Soft Touch" padded ceiling, it is seemingly a home on wheels. Another unique feature worth mentioning is the front bed lift in the cockpit, offering additional sleeping space.
The 2021 Berkshire XLT Motorhome is not just luxurious but also smart. The interior has a multi-plex system incorporating the Precision Plex app control, which permits easy operation of the various functions from a simple interface. The electrical system is extensive, including six 6-Volt deep cycle house batteries, a 2800kW Pure Sine inverter/converter, and energy management system.
This class A motorhome also boasts of an Aqua Hot hydronic heat system with continuous hot water and heated tiles, a 30" OTR convection microwave oven, and a 23 cf french door residential refrigerator with ice maker, providing all the amenities you'd expect in a comfortable home.
The living room includes a 49" LED TV (except in model 45A where it's 43"). There's also a 32" LED TV in the bedroom and cockpit overhead, with smaller TVs in each bunk where applicable.
Of course, luxury doesn't come cheap. With an MSRP of $442,707 and a dealer cost of $305,315, this motorhome is certainly a significant investment. Nevertheless, considering the comfort, convenience, high-quality construction, innovative features, and luxurious design that comes with the 2021 Berkshire XLT Series Class A Motorhomes 45B, it undeniably offers a high return on investment for travel enthusiasts and adventurers who are not willing to compromise on quality and luxury.

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
