I find the 2024 Open Range Conventional Series Travel Trailer 26BHS by Highland Ridge RV to be a quite impressive travel trailer for adventurous families or a group of friends. The trailer's exterior and interior specifications are certainly well-planned and executed. The exterior boasts a front diamond plate protection and a rear camera prep, highlighting the manufacturer's commitment to safety. Furthermore, the thermal sealing and fully insulated roof ensures comfort and warmth during your trip.
The trailer's capabilities speak volumes of the excellent engineering by the manufacturer. With an unloaded vehicle weight of 5,810 lbs and a cargo carrying capacity of 1,690 lbs, it is evident that the trailer caters to those planning for long trips or having a sizable quantity of luggage. Moreover, the gross vehicle weight rating of 7,500 lbs justifies the manufacturer's claim of its robustness and durability.
What I find unique is the dry hitch weight of 760 lbs, thereby ensuring a stable and secure connection between the pulling vehicle and the trailer. You can also look forward to an exterior length and height of 30'8" and 10'5" respectively. These dimensions are more than enough to provide spacious room inside the vehicle, thereby enhancing the comfort of the passengers. The interior height of 6'9" ensures that even tall individuals can move around comfortably.
On top of that, the trailer accommodates up to 10 sleepers-a feat that is rarely achieved in standard travel trailers. Equipped with a contemporary residential high-rise kitchen faucet and a single basin under-mount kitchen sink, this model ensures a tolerable and comfortable stay on the go. With the black tank and gray water capacities being 32.5 gals each, and a fresh water capacity of 42 gals, water supply seems to be efficiently taken care of and managed.
I highly appreciate the attention to intricate details like the foot flush toilet and the LED interior lighting system. One cannot overlook the hard work put by the developer in ensuring maximum comfort and convenience for the passengers. Moreover, the pleated blackout night shades guarantee a peaceful and undisturbed sleep after an eventful day of adventure.
Overall, the Open Range Conventional Series Travel Trailer 26BHS 2024 is an excellent choice for an unforgettable travel experience. The amenities and comforts provided cater perfectly to the needs of people longing for an adventure, but at the same time, desiring home-like comfort. At a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $34,313, this travel trailer strikes a balance between luxury and affordability.

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
