Used 2018 Airstream Basecamp 16 — Lowell, AR

The 2018 Basecamp 16 is Airstream's travel trailer on the Front Kitchen floor plan. This one is used and listed at $22,184. Dry weight is 2,585 lb, well under the 5,550 lb median for the category. At 16 ft 4 in it is noticeably shorter than the typical travel trailer (28 ft 11 in).

Expect roughly 3,050 lb once it is loaded for a trip. That calls for a mid-size SUV, minivan or small pickup, with 10–15% of that on the hitch landing on the tow vehicle — no weight-distribution hitch strictly required, though one still improves the ride.

With no slide-outs there is less to maintain and one fewer thing to fail on the road. Sleeping capacity is 2, which is on the compact side for the category.

It is listed $10,617 below the $32,801 MSRP, a 32% saving. It comes in under the $24,250 category median.

Fitted equipment includes ac, 30 amp service, 2 burner stove and microwave. It ships from Lowell, AR door-to-door to any of the 50 states, inspected before it leaves, at one transparent price with no dealer fees.
