As someone who cherishes the open road, exploring new territories, and outdoor adventures, I found the 2024 Carbon Toy Hauler Fifth Wheel 398 (henceforth referred to as the 'Carbon 398') to be an opulent and reliable home away from home.
Starting from the outside, the Carbon 398 comes with a 12" I-beam frame and double-welded aluminum construction, ensuring durability and stability. This model's commitment to safety is awe-inspiring, featuring large tinted safety glass windows and a patented Key Shield protection system along with its painted fiberglass cap.
This toy hauler comes with a 78" entry door and includes a Norco BAL Accu-Slide expandable room system, providing generous space to accommodate a more comfortable living area. It's also prepped for generators, comes with a 50 Amp service, an exterior ladder, and a one-touch electric awning with LED lights. Not to mention its impressive 188-gallon fresh water capacity and a 6-point hydraulic auto-leveling system.
The interior of the Carbon 398 is equally impressive with 8' tall living room and kitchen slides and heat-and-message-equipped Thomas Payne furniture that further enhances its luxurious feel. Not to overlook its solid-surface countertops and large farmhouse-style stainless steel kitchen sink—this model spares no expense when it comes to comfort and style.
The Carbon 398 also offers advanced technological features, including a 50" LED TV with surround sound and appliances like a 3-burner range and 17" black oven. The bedroom has a 60" x 80" queen bed with LED overhead reading lights, outlets/USB on both sides of the bed, and a TV hookup.
Perhaps one of the most impressive features is the Carbon 398's garage that comes with a ram air ventilation system and hardwood angled cabinets. This space includes its own fuel station with a 30-gal capacity, ensuring you'll have enough energy to power all your activities.
With an MSRP of $109035 and an invoice price of $72690—as reported by See Dealer Cost—the Carbon 398 offers plenty of value for its price. If you're searching for the perfect blend of style, comfort, and durability, the Carbon 398 might just be the luxurious mobile home you need for the ultimate road trip adventure.
All in all, the Carbon Toy Hauler Fifth Wheel 398 is not just a recreational vehicle—it's a movable vacation home build for adventurers who seek comfort and style in their journey.

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
