OK, so our Northern Tool pod cover came in yesterday. It's the 190" one. Our 177 has an antenna, and AC.. so here is what the cover looks like mounted...









So, make up your own mind if those pockets on the top are worth the extra $$$.

If you don't do the F/B, and many don't, you wouldn't have seen it.

lol.

Hi Furpod

Think it would fit a 182G?  It's 1'4" longer than the 177

Nope, I don't do FB.  Its my quiet revolt against the machine, which I'm otherwise tied to all day during the week, and often at other times too.

Wow, for that price I just might get one!

From what I've talked with Furpod about and seen it would not fit any of the 18x models.  I'm in the same boat as you and am looking and was Hoping it would cover our 181g.
 
Looks like we'll be buying the Forest River one.

I don't think so.

Kymooses and I talked about that, he has 181G (I think). I am pretty sure there isn't enough stretch for that.. I think, at least for this year, you garage guys are stuck with a FR option only.

EDIT: Look at them typing skills of kymooses... he flat beats that keyboard like a pro...

Don't blame you at all. My wife is in an IT position and on the 'puter all day. Took us a LONG time to start using F/B.. and after a couple years, we still only have like 40 friends, that are all family or real, we know them in the real world, friends... It has allowed us to both catch up with our best friends from college and high school, and the military, which is nice as we are a long way from where we grew up..

Our big revolt against the machine is "homey don't text".. and just the general fact that we waited until about 2005 before we got our first cell phone, and it was only 2 years ago that we BOTH had one.

LOL
