The 2023 Chaparral Lite Fifth Wheel 284RL by Coachmen RV is an impressive entrant into the recreational vehicle market, boasting intelligent, modern design, high-end reliability, and a reputation for superior handling. With a gross vehicle weight rating of 11,500 pounds, this RV is engineered to handle the open roads with grace and reliability.
Renowned for its premium construction standards, the Chaparral Lite Fifth Wheel features thick residential 5" truss rafters and robust aluminum framed sidewalls. Complementing its resilience is the implementation of rot-proof AZDEL composite sidewall panels. The RV is reinforced with a 6-layer, bonded, and aluminum-framed main floor structure that guarantees extended durability and function on the road.
Weather Shield+ technology is one of the standout features in this model. The RV has been cold tested and hot tested, with additional reflective technology implemented across the underbelly, roof, slides, and elsewhere for enhanced insulation. On the same note, the ducted furnace to an enclosed, insulated, and heated underbelly exemplifies the commitment to year-round comfort.
The model's automotive painted front cap with LED strip lighting and UV-resistant, white gel coat exterior sidewall panels combine practicality with aesthetics. The modern interior feels like a home away from home, with the entertainment center prepped for a 50"-55" TV, comfortable Thomas Payne theatre seating, and a stunning dove grey interior scheme. The Queen-size residential bed ensures a restful sleep with convenient bedroom features such as USB ports, storage compartments, and 110-volt outlets.
The kitchen is equally impressive, with a large, high-efficiency stainless steel refrigerator, microwave, and an XL oven. And let's not forget the generously proportioned, extra-deep sink and modern high-rise faucet that surely elevate the culinary experience in this fifth wheel RV. The beautiful bathroom is equipped with luxuries like a large shower with sliding glass doors, a porcelain toilet, and a large linen closet for storing towels and other essentials.
The 2023 Chaparral Lite Fifth Wheel 284RL by Coachmen RV is truly a marvel of modern RV design. Despite its luxurious appointments, it remains competitively priced with an MSRP of $56,217, which is a reasonable investment for the quality and features on offer. Embracing the open road has never been more inviting or comfortable.

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
