Today’s RV review is of the 2027 inTech Black Wing 826-X toy hauler. This is a no-slide wide-body toy hauler built by inTech, a company that definitely builds things very differently than is the norm in the RV space.
Like many toy haulers, this one clearly prioritizes hauling and supporting side-by-sides or other motorized vehicles. But what really stands out to me is how closely it resembles something I’ve often imagined building myself—a custom trailer based on a cargo hauler. Of all the production models I’ve seen, this might be the closest to that vision.
Hmm, perhaps my wife, who also serves as my adult supervisor and keeps me from making extraordinarily stupid decisions, might actually be okay with this rig. I’ll show her this review!
How the inTech Black Wing 826-X toy hauler is built
While most towable RVs start with a steel frame, typically provided by an outside firm like Lippert or BAL (Norco), inTech builds its own structure in-house. I call it a structure because the frame itself is an all-aluminum heavy-duty frame, but then they also weld a full aluminum frame together to form one very strong build.
This aluminum cage includes the roof structure, so there is quite literally no structural wood in this trailer whatsoever. Even the floor is an anodized aluminum sheet.
To that, all the interior and exterior finished walls are attached, as well as all the other RV bits that turn this into a camper.
The suspension on these is a torsion axle design, so each wheel operates semi-independently. I really like torsion axle suspensions.
Quite honestly, I can’t imagine a better way to build a trailer than this.
Interestingly, the trailer’s shape is a bit different, with a pointed front that should help improve aerodynamics—something most towables struggle with.
Inside that nose are two levels. The upper level is a full pass-through storage area lined with aluminum walls and accessible from both sides. Below it, the camp side houses two 20-pound propane tanks in an enclosed compartment. The road side includes a space designed for an optional 4,500-watt gasoline generator. If you skip the generator, that space becomes additional storage.
That upper pass-through is especially generous—more so than in many toy haulers. Those typically prioritize large rear garage space but sacrifice pass-through storage up front.
There is also a smaller compartment that can arguably be used for your 30-amp electrical cord. They also provide a plastic tube under the trailer for your sewer hose.
I also like the windows inTech is using, which are the frameless tilt-out windows whose structure includes both light and bug shades.
What’s inside the inTech Black Wing 826-X toy hauler
The business of hauling toys in an RV means that the interior of this is prioritized for that purpose with six tie-downs directly into the frame, each capable of 5,000 pounds. (You can’t haul 30,000 pounds in here—that’s just a measure of how well each will keep your moving vehicles from actually moving.)
I had mentioned that the floor in this is a sheet of anodized aluminum, but inTech puts down a segmented mat to make the interior cozier. This mat is pretty durable and quite cleanable—it’s that marine-grade stuff that many RVers are going to.
There is a ramp to drive/ride your toys into the back. You can opt to have a folding fence around the perimeter of the ramp when it’s deployed in patio deck position. The fence inTech uses they build themselves.
Sleeping in the inTech Black Wing 826-X
On the interior, there are opposing couches at the very back, which can fold down to become two 40” x 76” long beds or fold up against the walls when you want to bring in those toys.
There’s another bed on a lift, called a HappiJac®, that measures 60” x 80”. This one stays higher above the floor even when deployed, so it comes with a ladder to get into it. You should remember that you’re up there if you have to make a midnight run to the potty. Apparently, a lot of owners just use the fold-down couch beds, although they don’t look that comfortable.
I have mentioned the RVSuperbag before, and this would be another case where that just makes sense to serve as your bedding. You’d have one each for the lower beds and then one larger one for the upper bed.
Interestingly, the way inTech has done the ceiling in this rig is to have a dropped section at the front and then a raised section so that the bed can lift higher to accommodate toys. (There’s no A/C ducting above the upper bed when it’s lifted to the ceiling.)
When I was selling RVs, we had a fair number of taller customers. Toy haulers were always something we suggested because the ceilings tended to be higher on these.
Living/dining in the inTech Black Wing 826-X
The only seating space provided is those opposing couches, but you could bring a folding table and really seat six people. This would be a good thing for game night.
There’s also an interesting folding metal table that slots into a space on the camp side of this trailer. That table can be mounted inside or taken and mounted outside.
Opposite the table is an electric fireplace and a 40” 12-volt TV. Surrounding that are several cabinets, so storage space in here isn’t bad at all—not typical for a toy hauler.
If you wanted a super comfortable spot to sit and watch TV, you could always pack one of those zero-gravity camp chairs or whatever you like best. The one I have seems to be as comfortable as any home furniture. It’s pretty great.
Kitchen in the inTech Black Wing 826-X
I can see this kitchen being one of the several polarizing features in this trailer. It’s not a bad kitchen at all, though.
There is an L-shaped counter at the front of the trailer with three overhead compartments for storage. The countertop is a faux marble solid material. There are three cut-outs in the surface—two over the sink and a third over a trash can. Under the sink is also a large storage space, and the floor is more of that anodized aluminum, so no worries about putting stuff in here that’s hot or wet.
There are also four drawers under the two-burner propane cook top. Those drawers are all metal, as is much of the rest of the structure of this trailer. This thing is built to last.
There’s also the obligatory 12-volt refrigerator plus a microwave. However, unlike many RVs with two-burner stovetops and no oven, this microwave is just a microwave as opposed to being one of those convection air fryer rigs. Bummer.
Bathroom in the inTech Black Wing 826-X
I don’t know why I saved this for last, but it’s going to be a deal breaker for a lot of the people who read this because it’s a wet bath. I will say, inTech does a good job with their wet bathrooms because the whole interior can get wet without being ruined.
A lot of RVs with wet baths still have wooden walls, which seems silly to me. But I understand ya’ gotta cut corners where ya’ can. Bleh. This is all human-made materials. Even the door is an exterior-style gasketed door, so you can splash to your heart’s content in here.
Oh, the toilet paper is contained in a plastic enclosure, so no worries on that front.
Boondocking and travel access in the inTech Black Wing 826-X
This trailer has no slides, which is another reason I absolutely love it. So, that also means everything’s fully accessible, even for a travel stop, depending on what you load into the back of the trailer.
The fresh water tank in this is 90 gallons—Wow.
This can be fitted with a gasoline-fired generator. There is an on-board 40-gallon fuel tank. It powers the generator but also can be used to fuel up any toys one might bring along for the ride.
Solar is an option, and there’s also a port on the side for portable solar panels. The optional solar packages can include a 2,000-watt inverter.
Final thoughts on the inTech Black Wing 826-X
One of the things about inTech interiors is that they do have an austere feel to them. However, this can be easily overcome with stick-on wallpaper, including removable wallpaper from a company like Spoonflower. You could go with rustic cabin look, walls, or whatever.
I also know there are a number of aspects of this trailer that are likely going to lose favor with more fancy folk—the wet bath, a HappiJac bed, things like that. But then that’s why there are 31 flavors at the ice cream store—something for everyone.
The combination of the build quality, easy cleaning, durable structure, lack of a slide room, metal cabinetry, more aerodynamic shape, and a number of other things makes me very, very interested in this design. It would solve my mental issues of wanting to build a cargo trailer without having to actually build something terrible.
I’m more the Tim Taylor from Home Improvement, not Al Borland.
Of course, I love your feedback and look forward to what you think of this rig.

Neat camper and lots of possibilities. Are the torsion axles Dexter? If so, I am not a fan. The spindles are weak and bend easy causing an out of alignment tire/wheel and odd tire wear and fairly quickly. I am on my second front axle and I think that one is now bent on the passenger side. I drive gently and no off roading. One pot hole or bridge joint and you can have a bent spindle. There are better systems out there.
We have the Dexter axles on all four of the Mini Lites we’ve owned and haven’t had issues yet and I have…uh…encountered more than a few curbs. But now I will look more closely.
We put 60,000 miles on our two trailers with Dexter torsion axles with no problems. Our travel trailer made a 7,000-mile trip to Alaska over the Alaska, Cassiar, Top of the World, and all the major Alaska highways without a single axle issue. We had several other frost-heaved and gravel road-caused issues, including 2 flat rear truck tires on the TOTW “highway” (a very generous name for that road!), but not one axle issue. Our Dexter-axle 5th wheel traversed many “gravel” (dirt) USFS roads all across the West without a single problem. But all of our Dexter axles were rated for at least half the GVWR, without subtracting the tongue/pin weight. That’s a critical spec!
Nice toy hauler. I would want an awning for the patio.
A quality RV is definitely going to be expensive and this inTech is no exception. However, we in the Rockies need a well-insulated, 4-season RV that can stay comfortable on a 23 degree night at 10,600′ in August (personal experience in a USFS cg.). An aluminum-sheet floor covered by a rubber mat doesn’t sound very warm to me, no matter how well-insulated the walls and roof may be. And the welded aluminum cage structure, skin, ramp door, and cabinets might potentially make for a cold interior too. No discussion of insulation or R-value, so I would want to defer judgement on this trailer until more info is available.
We’re in Minnesota and like to camp in the late fall here and head south. One time in Palo Duro SP in Texas it was -4 F.
Does it have:
Double pane windows?
Insulated floor?
Wall insulation?
Tank heating?
I don’t need to freeze in another supposedly 4-Season camper.
