That should work out great!!  When we owned our Yukon we were towing a 6500# Wilderness so I know what you mean about towing a pod with one.  Enjoy!!!

Hi, Sleepless!  I'm fortunate enough to have a brother who lives in Tipp City, Ohio.  He tows his own LARGE RV to take his 4 LARGE dogs everywhere with him.  He has agreed to meet me half way across the country, pulling my new baby, and I'll pick it up from him in Nebraska.  He drives a Yukon; I'm not sure he'll even know he's pulling the pod!  So I won't need to add delivery charges - except the eternal gratitude to my awesome sibling!
Happy tails and trails!

The details on the Crown package have been on multiple dealer's sites for a while, so while it isn't on FR's site yet I'm comfortable posting this since the dealers have already done so:
 
-Jensen "Bluetooth" AM/FM/CD/DVD Stereo w/Wire Remote Control
-Two Interior Speakers
-Two Exterior Speakers
-Keyless Entry Door Lock
-Residential Goose Neck Faucet w/Pull Out Sprayer
-Pleated Shades

Does anyone know if the Jensen stereo replaces the one over the bed or is it mounted near the entry door?

Yes we Mooses are on the loose and we absolutely love that movie.  Gotta say though we stole the idea from another RVer earlier this Summer.  Was too funny not to copy for ourselves.

And yes this crown package seems to cover most everything we saw.  I think also the Diamond Plating from the HRE might also be a part of that package.  Maybe not though, the Pods we saw were on their way to Hood River as their prototypes of sorts.  Is more than possible it's just only an option for the HRE's.

Some other Podders have had it installed though.

Whatever you buy and wherever you buy, be sure to add the shipping charge, if any.

Upsizing? Kids grow fast..

The 178 is a fantastic floor plan.. we are sure we would buy that if buying new now.
