As a frequent traveler and seasoned camper, the new 2023 Rockwood Roo Series Expandable Travel Trailer 183 caught my attention. This hybrid camper, introduced by the illustrious Forest River RV, is a marvelous example of innovative construction and thoughtful design intended to make camping trips as convenient and comfortable as possible.
Topping the list of impressive features is the travel trailer's sturdy construction. Its aluminum cage base for the dinette and beds coupled with 6-sided aluminum framing provide immense stability and durability. The insulation factors of R-7 for sidewalls, R-12 for floors, and R-14 for ceilings are excellent for thermal control, facilitating comfortable and energy-efficient living conditions within the camper.
As for towing, the trailer comes equipped with easy lube axles and Nev-R Adjust brakes. Its rear observation camera prep with a molded mounting plate, and the inclusion of a TST Tire Pressure Monitor System, proves invaluable for safe and effortless towing. Not to mention, the power tongue jack further simplifies the process.
The exterior boasts laminated white fiberglass sidewalls and convenient, easy-to-reach lockable bed latch systems. The power awning with adjustable rain dump and LED lighting, tinted frameless windows, and magnetic compartment door catches are perfect additions for outdoor lovers.
The interior of the 2023 Rockwood Roo Series Expandable Travel Trailer 183 is equally impressive. Its Newport Ash Cabinetry combined with solid wood cabinet doors and drawers offer both style and sturdiness. The 55 AMP converter with a charger, LED lighting, and quick-recovery water heater are striking examples of modern convenience. Plus, the heated mattress ensures a comfortable sleep even in the coldest weather.
The kitchen stands out with a 3-burner high output gas range, 21” gas oven, and an under-mount double bowl kitchen sink with a residential-style faucet. As for the bathroom, it also includes modern features like a Showermiser water-saving system, skylight, and a Maxxair Ventilation fan and cover.
In conclusion, the 2023 Rockwood Roo Series Expandable Travel Trailer 183 by Forest River RV sets a new standard in hybrid campers. Its solid construction, modern equipment, and careful attention to comfort and convenience make it stand out in its league. Combined with the fact that it flows so well with the concept of hassle-free travel, it's a marvel worth considering for anyone with a passion for camping.

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
