Congrats on delivery!  The new color and logo have a rather retro look!

Hello, we just got our 2015 and the colors are awesome. We ordered in in June and took delivery 8/16/14. I thought I wouldn't like the new colors either, but I really like them. We've had so many people look and comment how cool it looks. Check it out.

I didn't think I would like the new colors.. but after a visit to the factory and seeing them in person, I like them a lot.

I liken the outside to Robin Egg Blue. And I really like it. I could make a bunch of decal styling changes outside to give it a more retro feel though. I REALLY like the wheels compared to our 2014 wheels(hate them). I would change one of these Pods over to painted steel wheels with baby moons & maybe wide whitewall tires.
The interior reminds me of bleached barn siding or whitewashed wood. I kinda like that too. I like the silver finished hardware inside.

Thank you! This is very timely and helpful--getting ready to purchase a 171 and feel like we can now make an informed decision.  I'm thinking the "new" 2015 models have added the outside shower (nice!) and switched to LED interior lighting.  I'm still not a fan of the drab colors but perhaps one can warm the decor with rugs, pillows, etc.  I was initially aghast at the new exterior colors but they have grown on me, much as I've learned to tolerate lima beans, and are no longer an issue.

Some models have both tanks connected, I believe all non-slide models.

New outside shower?





And have they connect the drain for the black water tank and gray water tanks?

Found a listing with the new colors. Not sure that I like the change.

Somewhere at the end of the 2014 Goshen pics I have one or two of the unfinished interior.

I actually like the look of it a lot, it's very clean and i'd almost liken it to being a coastal kinda feel.

But I don't have any full complete interior photos yes, I'm working on getting those, I'm crossing my fingers that tomorrow I'll have some full interior with all the lights on and all the fabric.

I like the new inside colors better than the dark browns in our Pod now.
