2026 Wolf Pup 16FQW

The Cherokee Wolf Pup 16FQW packs a genuine front bedroom into one of the smallest, lightest trailers in the line. A queen bed fills the front, a rear bathroom with a tub/shower surround and a vanity sits across the back, and the middle is a galley and dinette — a flush-mount glass cooktop, a large sink, a 10.3-cubic-foot double-door refrigerator and an oversized removable-table dinette that converts for a third sleeper. There is no slide-out, so the floor stays simple and the weight stays low; an outside mini-kitchen extends cooking out of doors.

Wolf Pup is Forest River's entry-lightweight, metal-sided line — built on Power Gear frame technology with a Space Saver Rail design, high-impact front metal in place of corrugated metal, a Tufflex PVC seamless walk-on roof and a five-eighths-inch tongue-and-groove plywood floor, riding on the Cherokee Stable Step. Standard equipment runs to an 8,000-BTU air conditioner, a 20,000-BTU furnace, a 200-watt solar panel with a 40-amp controller and a battery disconnect, a tankless water heater, a backup camera and a full-length power awning. The optional Black Label package adds frameless tinted automotive glass, gel-coat sidewalls, solid-surface countertops and Thermo-Foil Arctic insulation.

At 3,619 pounds dry against a 5,545-pound GVWR it leaves roughly 1,926 pounds of cargo capacity — ample for a couple's water, food and gear — and the single-axle, sub-22-foot body tows behind a wide range of mid-size SUVs as well as any half-ton. The single axle keeps weight and tire cost down but leaves no spare axle if a tire fails. For couples who want a real walk-in front bedroom and a rear bath in the smallest, lightest, most affordable package the Wolf Pup line offers, the 16FQW is the line's single-axle couples' camper.

The Cherokee Wolf Pup is Forest River's entry-lightweight travel trailer — the small, SUV-towable line that sits a step below the Cherokee Grey Wolf. It spans roughly fifteen-plus floorplans for 2026 across three families: full-feature wood-frame travel trailers, a lightweight single-axle "LP" sub-line on the T-9 chassis, and a small toy hauler. The 16FQW on this page is highlighted; each other profiled plan links to its own page. The highest-demand layouts are detailed here and the rest are catalogued on the line hub.
