Used 2019 Dutchmen Kodiak Cub 186E — Olive Branch, MS

A used 2019 Kodiak Cub 186E from Dutchmen, this compact camper on the Hybrid floor plan is priced at $12,239. Dry weight is 3,567 lb, close to the 3,774 lb median for the category. At 20 ft 10 in 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 4,200 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.

Sleeping capacity is 6. With no slide-outs there is less to maintain and one fewer thing to fail on the road. GVWR is 5,500 lb, leaving about 1,933 lb for water, propane, gear and passengers before you reach the limit.

It is listed $6,576 below the $18,815 MSRP, a 35% saving.

Fitted equipment includes hide-a-bed sofa, front queen bed, fiberglass exterior and center kitchen. It ships from Olive Branch, MS door-to-door to any of the 50 states, inspected before it leaves, at one transparent price with no dealer fees.
