Now, that's what I call SERVICE!  Helping you set up in an RV park - wow.  Welcome . . . and happy Podding!

Congratulation on your new Rpod    We purchased our this summer and so far have 22 nights in ours and 2,300 miles. Everyone of them has been enjoyable. We like the mental activity of making decisions, you know like, " do I put my lawn chair in the sun or the shade? ". " Do we go for a walk before dinner or after dinner?".
There are just the two of us and Max our German Shorthaired Pointer so we do have a good time.
You will need to get used to people coming over wanting to see inside. Always fun to show it off and visit with folks about RVing.   Have a Very Merry Christmas, we are camping in our in my son's drive way Christmas Eve, he has put in water, electric, sewer and cable connections so we have all the comforts of the LaQUinta, well except the indoor pool and hot tub, but you can't have everything.

Congratulations.  We are anticipating purchasing a 171 in the spring and returning to camping after almost 20 years.  I would recommend that you read all of the posts on maintenance as well as any others that look of interest.  Have picked up a lot of tips from these forums.  Enjoy.

Welcome!!! Great to have you join us. We also got tired of the up and down, so our 171 is a delight!
Any question, just ask! We'll be glad to help on this forum.

Welcome.  We fit 4 in ours, but we planned for the future and some day we'll have the luxury of having just 2 of us in there.  Cool

Welcome P pod, Donna and I are 62 and almost 60, we got our 2011 RP-172 in November, only got to use it twice before winterizing, We are so excited about the upcoming spring and summer, we are like a couple of goofy teenagers. Our kids are grown and we are planning, dreaming, and making plans for short trips, then maybe longer, you are right its perfect for one, for sure 2 and you could do 4 if you really like each other. LOL
