Hello from alaska

I joined this forum to learn about forest river trailers and how they hold up over time. We are looking to buy a greywolf 26rr toyhauler and was wondering if anyone knows how they hold up on bumpy (washboard) dirt roads? thankyou.

Same as any other TT, TH . it will take it's toll no matter what brand you buy . there are things you can do to minimize the effect , shocks , EZ flex equalizer , etc .

Search Amazon for "trailer shock kit" then drill a few holes and enjoy the ride. Absolutely required on rear kitchen floor plans. Another good idea is a wet bolt shackle kit from eTrailer.com.

I have a question for my new friends from the northeast, it looks like the farther east I look, the better the prices. My question is will I be suject to sales tax if I am from out of state? My daughter just had her 2nd child, I could kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Happy trails

U will have to pay sales tax for your purchase in the state where you register it when you get your license tabs.not like ebay or other on line purchase. Some states collect sales tax for others in a reciprocal agreement. !
