That's the link to the 2016 models. The 2014 Grey wolf has a CCC of 2456 lbs. I couldn't find published data for the 2014 284BH. From similar trailers, its probably between 2500 and 3100 lbs
Which is why it would have helped enormously if you'd provided links in your original post to the two models you're considering. To properly understand exactly what it is you're dealing with you want the numbers listed on each trailer's yellow weight sticker ... since these are both lot models a phone call to the dealer(s) involved will provide that information ... until then, you're just guessing.
It would also help if we knew how many kids, current ages, and approximate weights, knowing of course that every kid grows like a weed. :E What else do you want to carry in the truck? - dog(s), trailer setup gear, generator, etc, etc, etc? It ALL counts and will directly affect how much gross tongue weight your truck can deal with and not exceed it's various ratings, particularly it's GRAWR (Gross Rear Axle Weight Rating) and as likely it's payload capacity.
