We completed our first outing in our new 2024 RPOD 190C.  We went north to the cooler temps of Prescott National Forest and stayed at Lynx Lake Campground.  

Great site with good views, clean bathrooms and Potable water.  The water level in the lake was low due to a repair at the Dam, but fish were still biting.

The first trip went well, with only the hot water heater not working correctly, which it is still under warranty so that should be fixed next week.

I thought the Rpod towed great.

Looking forward to our next trip in Oak Creek Canyon.

Great to hear!  Let us know what the issue was with the hot water heater.  Did it function on either propane or 120 or not at all?

Are you using a weight distribution hitch? Just curious. Nothing to do with the hot water heater.

It would ignite and run on propane, but after about 3 minutes it would shut off, water never heated up.

Yes, I use a blue ox track pro. I did get it adjusted after the first row, the dealership that installed it did the adjustment for free. We now have it dialed in.
