Used 2018 Riverside RV MT. Mckinley 197 — Alvarado, TX

The 2018 MT. Mckinley 197 is Riverside RV's travel trailer on the Front Kitchen floor plan. This one is used and listed at $11,857. At 26 ft 6 in it is a little shorter than most travel trailers (28 ft 11 in). Dry weight is 4,610 lb, below the 5,550 lb median for the category.

Expect roughly 5,450 lb once it is loaded for a trip. That calls for a half-ton pickup, with 10–15% of that on the hitch landing on the tow vehicle — check the payload sticker rather than the tow rating — payload runs out first on half-tons.

GVWR is 7,820 lb, leaving about 3,210 lb for water, propane, gear and passengers before you reach the limit. A single slide-out opens up the main living area when you are parked. Sleeping capacity is 3, which is on the compact side for the category.

It is listed $2,092 below the $13,949 MSRP, a 15% saving. It also sits well below the $24,250 median for travel trailers in our inventory.
