We're picking up this Saturday, I'll post pics. Hitch, brake control and during is all set. I would've picked it up last Saturday but my nephew fit married and that was more important.

Today I picked up my Arctic wolf... My F250 with 5.4 gas motor pulled it well, but could use more power, overall not bad though

New to Fifth wheelin
Quote: "Hello,
My wife and I just placed an order for a brand new Arctic Wolf fifth wheel on Sunday at the Hershey show.

Just like going to a breeder to "look at puppies" we came home Sunday the proud new owners (as long as our credit approves) of a beautiful home on wheels.
I'm looking forward to learning more and sharing our experiences

Ain't that the truth

It's amazing how stable the fifth wheel feels, quite a few years ago I had a 24' TT I pulled with a conversion van. Even with WDH and sway control, it didn't feel as stable as the 5er.
I think I'm in love.

I did not want to muddle up my thread (did not want to feed the mods! Haha).

Had a couple questions about a few items..
Is the ceiling fan 12v or 120v?
Can the usb ports work off 12v or do they need 120v as well.
ANd for the DW... What are the sheet sizes for the back bunk?

Wife is hitting up Amazon... Ugh...

Ceiling fan is 110. Not sure about USB, I would assume 110 only. I'll go check

So on 9/20 you ordered it an took delivery around 30 days later and you also had a second AC added? That's pretty good service.

Yes, I thought so.
I was getting nervous reading some comments on here, but so far they've been very responsive and easy to deal with.
I'm a little disappointed about the fire place, but they've assured me it's on its way.

I was a whole lot of concerned but as I have read your experience it is beginning to lower my level of being upset. They do seem much more responsive to email.

I was actually camping when he called to schedule my PDI, I could've picked it up sooner but had other things pre scheduled

That is how it is for us as well. They were supposedly wanting us to get it this past weekend or yesterday as well but we have trips planned up until the 10/28 pickup date.

I dealt with Patrick, if I text him he usually calls back within a reasonable amount of time (within 24 hours)
I was a bit shocked, I thought it would be more difficult... Never bought a new vehicle before
