   Has anyone towed the rpod (2015-183G) with a V-6 Honda Pilot in the mountains.  We are thinking of the Durango/Urey area to camp.  Am a little concerned (even with minimal weight in the Pod) that we will have difficulties up and down the higher elevations.

	Assuming it's a 4WD pilot it will be slow, but you'll get there. Get and watch a transmission temperature monitor. Note that my experience was with a 172, a lot lighter than your 183G. http://rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=8310&KW=pilot&PID=78377&title=honda-pilot-tv#78377 http://rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7983&KW=pilot&PID=75483&title=new-owners-179-with-questions#75483
