Used 2023 Riverside RV Retro 165 — Lewisville, TX

A used 2023 Retro 165 from Riverside RV, this travel trailer on the Front Kitchen floor plan is priced at $10,939. At 16 ft 4 in it is noticeably shorter than the typical travel trailer (28 ft 11 in). Dry weight is 2,500 lb, well under the 5,550 lb median for the category.

Plan around 2,950 lb loaded rather than the dry figure. A mid-size SUV, minivan or small pickup handles it comfortably; no weight-distribution hitch strictly required, though one still improves the ride.

GVWR is 3,820 lb, leaving about 1,320 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 3, which is on the compact side for the category.

That is a 14% reduction on the $12,722 MSRP — $1,783 off. It also sits well below the $24,250 median for travel trailers in our inventory.

Among its listed features are double door refrigerator, 3 burner stove, oven and booth dinette. It ships from Lewisville, TX door-to-door to any of the 50 states, inspected before it leaves, at one transparent price with no dealer fees.
