Who makes reasonably priced, lightweight, non-slide campers?

Lance 825 and 865 models put you at a weight weight of around 2200 lbs. and for lighter than that you need to go to a popup. Newer models are made lighter and that means greater cost - true for travel trailers too.

The way to save money is to by used as was mentioned. We bought a very little used 2008 camper in 2011 that had we bought the same model new would have cost twice as much. Part of the difference was it being used and part of it was that new camper prices had jumped a lot in cost.
