New Arctic Wolf 315TBH8
Some photos of our new 5er. Had a great first trip, everything seemed to work as expected.

I have been looking at the 315tbh8 as a potential upgrade. It's a great looking camper - glad to hear your first trip was a success!
I have a very similar truck (2017 3500 Dmax). I can't tell from the pic if you have a standard or long bed. What hitch are you using? Are you using the factory pin box? How do you like the setup?

Yeah made a good shoe area. Adding a few shelves to put the pans and such up on the higher shelves.

It is a short bed. I have a curt a16 (I think off the top of my head) slider. I am not using the turning point hitch. I can turn and. Even jack knife without hitting the truck. Have not even used the slider yet.

Do. You have a pic or two of your mounting? I was going to make some shelves but that would be easier.

Ok, I thought it might have been the wire shelving used in closets and such, misunderstood. Thanks. I still need to figure out my winterizing kit. I have a camco kit I had from the Grey wolf but not sure if I want to try and put tohether one for myself from Lowes parts.

I was going to get the camco it but I read that it's restrictive and didn't want to cut the flow any less than it already is

I did a flow test before I traded the grey wolf and it added 3 seconds to fill a 5 gallon bucket so it was not as bad as I would have thought. But it is a pain with it letting air leak into the winterizing port when it is not wrapped with teflon tape and using the pump to suck from the tank.

I just used a ball valve and tee from home Depot, and a garden hose nipple and cap on the winterization hose
