For travel enthusiasts and road trip aficionados, the name ‘Coachmen RV’ represents a legacy of comfort, convenience and reliability. The 2023 iteration of their Clipper Series Ultra Lite Travel Trailers, specifically the model 262BHS, lives up to this reputation, and then some. I recently had the chance to examine this exceptional travel trailer, and came away thoroughly impressed.
The 2023 Clipper Series Ultra Lite 262BHS immediately sets the bar high with its Norco NXG Chassis, a standout on its notable ledger of standard equipment. Additionally, its double steps and Nitro-fill radial tires provide a significant functional advantage making ingress and egress a breeze, further enhanced by its heavy-duty tongue jack. Safety is also emphatically addressed, complete with double 20# LP tanks and safety chains.
This trailer does not compromise on style. The heavy-duty .030/.024 exterior metal is paired with exterior skirt metal and an aerodynamic front profile to create a pleasant and commanding exterior look. The tinted safety glass windows and LED awning light add a touch of modern flair, indicative of the thoughtful design.
Moving inside, the little luxuries of the 2023 Clipper Series Ultra Lite 262BHS truly shine. It boasts a well-equipped kitchen with a 3-burner range, LED accent lighting, and a power vent system. The trailer also features a bathroom skylight that lets in ample natural light, and a power bath vent for superior ventilation.
Comfort is par for the course in this trailer. Offering ultra-comfort high-density cushions and Mortise and Tenon residential cabinet doors, it provides an ambiance that feels like home. In terms of practicality, the notable laundry pass-through in select models further underscores the trailer's utilitarian capabilities.
The 2023 Clipper Series Ultra Lite 262BHS impresses with its dimensions and capacities as well. The exterior is a generous 32'0" in length, 11'0" in height and 96" in width. The spacious fresh water capacity stands at 40 gallons, which is matched by equally generous gray and black water capacities of 32 gallons each. The awning size is a commendable 18’.
Given all the above, the suggested retail price tag of $39,078 seems like a bargain. Especially when one considers that the invoice price is a considerably lower $26,950. By revealing what the dealer pays, See Dealer Cost provides invaluable information allowing potential buyers to negotiate the best possible deal.
In conclusion, the 2023 Clipper Series Ultra Lite 262BHS Travel Trailer offers an excellent blend of comfort, practicality and style. Whether you're an experienced RV-er or a newcomer, this model from Coachmen RV is a worthwhile consideration for your next adventure on the open road.

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
