Riverside White Water Campers

[username_taken]

I've been looking for a camper for a while now.

While the new AF and Lance units are nice, they sure as hell aren't $30k nice IMHO. They're also heavy as hell, and while my diesel dually can carry pretty much anything, I think like a backpacker and travel light. All we really need are a bed, a bathroom, a couple of burners, and a fridge. AC is a bonus out here in the NV desert, and I can mount a small gas genset to the truck or the trailer we pull for the toys.

Used units seem to be scarce, and people are incredibly proud of units they haven't taken care of. Not paying $10k for a 15 year old camper that only sold for $15k new. The condition of the units also speaks volumes about the build quality - even the brands that are selling for $30k today the campers look to be ready for the scrap heap after 15-20 years.

So I've found a "value" option - Riverside White Water campers. Brand new, the 865 looks to be around $12-13k with everything I need. Nice and light, which gets me better mileage through the mountains and leaves me more room to tow bigger and heavier toys. Plus for $12-13k, I'm not expecting perfection like I would if I dropped $30k.

Has anybody heard of these? Any links or dealers out there? Information from a google search is surprisingly sparse.

They don't even mention TCs on their website.........LINK


NADA shows 3 models (800, 850, 865) but only for 2011, 2012, 2014

This is only place I could find with floorplans/info on current models....LINK

Dang!

A whole lot of attitude there, UT!

Chill!

Some of us are kinda fond of our overpriced, overweight pieces of******which only a durn fool would buy.

You sure you need advice?

Sounds to me like you are here to teach us up!

Always eager to learn Joe
