Used 2010 Forest River Rockwood Roo 233S — Kodak, TN

The 2010 Rockwood Roo 233S is Forest River's compact camper on the Hybrid floor plan. This one is used and listed at $4,496. Dry weight is 4,093 lb, above the 3,774 lb median for the category. At 23 ft it is right around the median length for a compact camper (21 ft 10 in).

Loaded with water, propane and gear it will sit nearer 4,850 lb, which puts it within reach of a full-size SUV or mid-size pickup. Budget for 10–15% of that on the hitch, and a weight-distribution hitch is worth fitting at this weight.

GVWR is 5,964 lb, leaving about 1,871 lb for water, propane, gear and passengers before you reach the limit. With no slide-outs there is less to maintain and one fewer thing to fail on the road. Sleeping capacity is 6.

It also sits well below the $12,239 median for compact campers in our inventory.

Among its listed features are single slide topper, 1 slide out, fiberglass exterior and patio awning. It ships from Kodak, TN door-to-door to any of the 50 states, inspected before it leaves, at one transparent price with no dealer fees.
