Most of my mods are from ideas from this group. Ask away. If I don't 'splain it, someone else surely will. Clever folks around here.

Wow, I looked at all of your mods, great job! Are there explanations that go along with the pictures?

Nice job. We loved are 178 also. But the 179 indoor space fitted my wife better. Rpods are the best.

My wife and I are retired and rv newbie wanabies. We had been looking at the 179 and 180s. Then we saw a used 178 and liked the idea of having 2 separate beds. It is so hard to decide.

Congratulations on your 179. We are on our third trip with ours. We have done 8800 miles on this trip and aren't done yet! There are just the two of us and we're retired. "Ribbit" fits us just fine.
Enjoy Life!!

Congratulations on your new pod 179! We full-time in our 179 and although sometimes it feels really small, overall we are so happy with it! Happy trails!

We are also retired and preferred the 180.  The RV is our escape from kids so we are not taking passengers.  We are too old to carry our stuff to public facilities and the dry bath was a must have.  We mostly cook outdoors or go to restaurants so did not need the big rear kitchen.  We do need more storage and looking into raising the bed to add two drawers and other mods people have posted to add more storage.

We are just retired also. We do take some of the grandkids with us from time to time. Happy travels.
