As an RV enthusiast and experienced reviewer, I was thrilled to take an in-depth look at the 2023 Redhawk SE Series Class C Motorhome 22C by Jayco RV. This review is meant to be comprehensive, covering the RV's design, quality, performance, and overall experience.
At first glance, the Redhawk SE Series Class C Motorhome 22C screams luxury and comfort. The 25'2" long vehicle features a strong exterior design with fiberglass walls covered in vinyl graphics and TPO laminated roof, a clear nod to Jayco’s commitment to quality. The interior is just as impressive. From the stylish stainless steel kitchen and bathroom sinks to the legless dinette table and the elegant hardwood cabinet doors, every detail has been thoughtfully considered.
But RVs are not just about comfort and luxury; they also need to perform on the road. The Redhawk SE features a powerful 6L Vortec V8 401 HP engine with 464 foot-pounds of torque. This engine, coupled with a Hydra-matic 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, makes for a smooth ride and a vehicle capable of tackling any terrain. This RV offers a remarkable weight capacity with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 14,200 lbs and a Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) of 20,000 lbs—a testament to its robust construction.
Jayco has spared no expense in making sure that the Redhawk SE Series Class C Motorhome is packed with all the essential modern amenities. It comes with a 4,000W generator, a 120 amp alternator, a 12.2-gallon propane tank, and a 57-gallon fuel tank.
Convenience is at the forefront of this model's design. The RV features power windows and door locks, power anti-lock brakes with power steering, a convection microwave oven, and a 2-burner cooktop with a flush cover. There’s also an auxiliary start switch and cruise control for those long drives on the open road.
Considering the size of the RV, the manufacturers included a leveling jack prep for those uneven terrains. For added safety, there are 2-point lap safety belts in all the designated seating areas and a smoke alarm and a carbon monoxide detector.
Despite its size, the 2023 Redhawk SE Series Class C Motorhome drives very well and is remarkably energetic on the road. Not once did I feel like it struggled, even when going uphill.
In conclusion, if you are considering a Class C motorhome that provides both comfort and performance without compromising on style or convenience, the 2023 Redhawk SE Series Class C Motorhome by Jayco RV should be on the top of your list. With its sleek design, impressive driving capabilities, and wealth of amenities, traveling in this RV is a luxurious experience you won’t want to miss out on.

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
