With the rise in popularity of the wanderlust-filled lifestyle, travel trailers have claimed their rightful place in the hearts of those seeking adventures big and small. This shift in travel preference calls for a heavy artillery in the form of a reliable, comfortable and practical vehicle. The 2022 Open Range Lite Series Travel Trailer 282RL by Highland Ridge RV, a fixture in the category of travel trailers, checks all these boxes.
The exterior of these marvels is like the skin of an armadillo - tough and flexible. The vacuum bonded laminated construction is reinforced with heavy-duty fiberglass and welded aluminum frames. The exterior includes a door side spray port, a grill hookup quick connect port, and flexible LP lines. Safety features are top-notch with a fully walkable roof and safety bumper with a drain hose carrier and end caps. The oversized pass-through storage with motion lighting is a handy feature for those extra knick-knacks that you just can't leave behind.
Inside, the trailer offers an impressive 81" interior height, giving you the room you need to be comfortably mobile. The 60” X 80” queen bed with storage drawers underneath, a tri-fold sofa, and a residential high-rise faucet with a pull-down sprayer don't just meet your comfort needs, they exceed them. Cable, satellite prep, LED interior lighting, and an electrical outlet in the trailer's master bedroom add to the convenience factor.
Not forgetting the technical specifics - this travel trailer goes in hard. Weighing in at 6935 lbs, with an Unloaded Vehicle Weight, and possessing a Cargo Carrying Capacity of 1565 lbs, the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating is a cool 8500 lbs. Enjoy an exterior length of 34’2” and a spacious interior height of 6’9”. This beast also possesses robust Tank Capacities, including a Fresh Water Capacity of 45 gals, a Gray Water Capacity of 58 gals, and a Black Tank Capacity of 29 gals. This slick trailer can comfortably house up to 8 sleepy heads.
To add the final cherry on top, the MSRP on this model is a cool $50550, and here at See Dealer Cost, we show you what the dealer pays - meaning you stand to shave a considerable figure off this sum!
All in all, if you're looking for a travel trailer that will deliver a safe, comfortable, and memorable travel experience, the 2022 Open Range Lite Series Travel Trailer 282RL by Highland Ridge RV is a fantastic choice.

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
