17 Wolf Pup Toy Hauler n Richmond

I'm a first time RVr and looking for info and places for the family. I bought this primarily to use as Hotel on wheels for track days/road racing vintage motorcycles. I bought it from a guy a couple of hours away that used for 6 months for his son's dirt bike.
Its very clean though, as he claims to have cleaned the bike before putting it back in. He even had an extra water tank installed.
I will post some pics later.

Congrats and welcome from SW Virginia / Martinsville / Bassett

Just a couple of thoughts Newport News has a nice city park / campground if you travel that way.

We lived in Yorktown a few years back & personal opinion Myrtle Beach is 10 times better for campgrounds than VA Beach. Myrtle has several campgrounds at the beach where VA Beach campgrounds for the most part are in a few blocks inland.

As I am clueless on maintenance, winterizing, filling tanks, etc..
I paid to have it winterized and it was too late for the shower pipe. Luckily I had gone to the storage site and drained the water lines from under the toy hauler.
Do I have a clue? No,...but when it warms I'm going to park it for a couple of days out front of my house to learn and watch youtube. Unless you guys know a DVD or book that help.

More pics when I can drive to the storage lot. Last time I went out the battery was dead, so I pulled it and now have in the garage on a charge.
