Update. We dropped off old TT at the dealer. Did the walk through and hooked up the alpha wolf. I’m not gonna lie. I was a little intimidated by the size of this thing. Hahaha. It is 5 foot longer and little heavier BUT it sets up way off the ground than the old one. It just looked huge. Anyway we hooked up and I took off. WOW is all I can say. It towed WAY WAY better than the old one. Just smooth and easy. Super simple and we brought it on down to a koa and it setup up and leveled out really easy. Now I’m havin a cold one watching march madness with the fireplace heat on and it is perfect for keeping the living room warm. It’s 40 degrees here. I love this thing so far. Except for the friction door. Not so pumped on that thing yet. I may have to work on it a little bit. Super hard to get latched from the inside other than that. No issues yet.

Congrats on your new unit, I would leave the door alone, a good wind and you'll be glad you did, enjoy and be safe

The RV market is very segmented now. There are many levels of quality and features. I just bought a used Rockwood and very happy with it so far. It has a lot of features and great finish. It has a Murphy bed which saves room. Really good design.

I have had a Nash and sold it to buy a hybrid. Big mistake. Now back in a quality trailer. I went to an RV show recently and all the new stuff was big but cheesy looking compared to the Rockwood.

My Wolf Pup door was a bother to latch tight. There are two little holes on the fixed pull tab handle. I ran a paracord loop through those and grab that to pull the door shut. Makes it a bit easier.
