When it comes to fifth wheels, almost nothing compares to Forest River's latest offering - the 2024 Cherokee Arctic Wolf Fifth Wheel 278BHS. As a travel enthusiast, I cannot emphasize enough how this RV has elevated the concept of luxury and convenience.
The first thing that strikes you about this Fifth Wheel is the enormity of space it offers. You no longer have to fight for elbow-room while on the road. It comes with a residential Queen-sized mattress for non-bed slide models and a King-sized mattress for bed slide models, so you can rest assured of a comfortable night's sleep on the road. Plus, each bed is fitted with individual reading lights.
The kitchen layout and equipment are impressive. You get a 10 cu. ft. refrigerator for non-bed slide models and an impressive 16 cu. ft. refrigerator for bed slide models. The "Blackout" kitchen appliance and hardware package adds a sleek modern feel to the kitchen area. The large pantry, along with pots and pans drawer under the oven, meets all your cooking storage needs.
Let’s talk about entertainment - the 2024 Cherokee Arctic Wolf Fifth Wheel is fitted with a dual zone Bluetooth stereo for your music needs. Additionally, it is prepped for a second air conditioner and comes with a "Home Spa" theatre seat with heat, massage, and ambient lighting. Now, that's what I call travel in style!
For the pet lovers out there, this RV has thoughtfully included a Leash Latch Pet Safety Technology. Safety is paramount with added features like motion sensing night lights in the bathroom, and at hall steps. Plus, it is prepped for a security/safety camera system.
The eco-conscious will be pleased with the Juice Pack which includes a 100W roof mount solar panel (expandable to 450W), a series 27 battery, a battery disconnect, a voltmeter, and a 30AMP solar charger. Who said luxury can’t be environmentally friendly?
Giving attention to every minute detail, the RV also has a convenient light at the utility center, and an oversized 15,000 BTU ducted air conditioner for the bed slide models. The bathroom is fitted with a shower skylight and a porcelain stool with water jet assist and foot flush, adding an extra touch of elegance.
The 2024 Cherokee Arctic Wolf Fifth Wheel 278BHS is not just an RV – it's a luxurious home on the go. With its high-end amenities and remarkable design, it has surpassed expectations in both performance and comfort.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
