Hello from Kansas.

We just put a deposit on a 2017 grey wolf 22rr. Waiting to hear from the dealer so we can go to Omaha and pick it up. Anyone have any advice about this camper?

Hello from Kansas.

I have the 26rr. Looked at the 22rr and decided to go for 26rr. The weights are close and length is within a few ft. Most all the mechanics are the same. I love the smaller toy haulers. I use mine often. Carry s 2005 Honda VTX 1300 in it using a Harbor Freight chock. You will love it and it's a great trailer for mods to make it your own. Just put 22rr, 26rr,25rr,and 27rr in the search bar and you will find all kinds of information. They are all pretty much same trailer with differing floor plans.

Pimp my 26 rr shows a lot of mods done to the 26rr.

Double check your electronics and speakers when you do the PDI. They have been known to hook up rca wires wrong in back. Take a flat screen with you to test tv, antenna, DVD, and speakers.

The equalizer wdh does not work perfectly with these trailers. The bigger head pinches the safety chain of the trailer when turning more than 30 degrees. I started with equalizer and swapped it out for husky centerline TS. It has a smaller head and doesn't pinch safety chains of trailer( the chains that go from the trailer frame to your hook holes on your receiver). Enjoy.

Welcome to the forum its a great place to get your questions answered. Do a very detailed PDI regardless of what the salesman says.

Thanks for all the advice. I am having the dealer install the WD hitch so I hope it works with this camper without problems. I never thought to take a tv along but am going to. That's a great idea. We are picking it up in Omaha on Saturday afternoon and the salesman said it will take a couple of hours to go thru all the ins and outs so we know exactly how everything works. Can't wait to load the bikes up and head out!

Picked up our new toy hauler yesterday from AC Nelsen RV in Omaha. Very nice folks and very helpful. Was definitely worth the 300 mile drive.

So far we love it! Other than the really crappy gas mileage pulling it home yesterday in the rain but it tows great. No sway at all and the brakes are way better than I've ever had on a trailer before. We have a camping trip planned for Easter weekend so that will give us time to really enjoy all it has to offer!
