When you head south where are you heading to? I'm in Sacramento.

I'll offer ours up for $300. Buyer to verify condition, and pay shipping. Return OK if buyer is unhappy, but must pay return shipping. Or drop by and check it out. We expect to be moving south fairly soon, could meet along the way somewhere.

Regarding the size of trailers and R-Domes, this was verified with R-Pod. The R-dome only comes in one size and that one size fits all trailers. Only two things have changed on the R-Dome the color and before about 2012 the width of the plastic piece that goes into the keder rail. Older keder rails were 11mm internal and the new since about 2012 are all 14mm. On the smaller trailers like my 172 the dome simply covers more of the side wall of the trailers. I've used an R-Dome for years with our 172 but just had a failure with our dome on our last trip and now need to replace.

Feisty these seem to range used from $250-300 depending on condition. I'm in California so we would need to figure out shipping as well. I have family in Spokane, which is why I was asking where you were in WA, but that doesn't help. Let me know what you come up with, I'm not in a hurry. The aluminum pole on my current R-Dome snapped cutting through the fabric on our last trip. We are getting by with duck tape and a spare tent pole, but will need to replace it at some point.

+1 to marwayne. The width of the trailer is not important, but the length of the trailer matters. Try it to be sure it fits the way you expect.

we haven't unrolled it or set it up, but it appears to be in good condition. I'm not sure what to ask/what it's worth, maybe I'll try to check new cost, and something reasonable based on that? Or ? We're in Bellevue, and Seattle every day right now.

That year will work, let me know the condition it is in and how much you want for it. Also what part of Washington are you in?

The R-Domes are all the same width, so the trailer size does not matter. The only variance throughout the years is the size of the keder rail (changed in 2012 I believe).
