Hi Chris/Doug 
Thanks a lot for the helpful tips. The previous owner used it for a month, but had it spanking clean when I checked it out this past weekend. We have a 2 month old baby, so we are looking forward to next few years of family camping together. 
I know that we have rpod gathering sometime in summer will probably hook up with u guys there.
Thanks
Rudy

Welcome Rudy and family, We purchased a used 2010 171 about 18 months ago. We found that light use - ours was used for 3 weeks- wasn't too much a problem. But like a new house some things needed tightening and cleaning. Watch for the hinges- I had to tighten all the screws, cleaning - we found old pancake mix in a number of places! Other than that, it's like a used car - check every thing!
Good luck. Hope to see you on one of our group get togethers. BTW, French Creek State Park is close by and lovely in all kinds of weather, a great place for a first camp!

Here's one that shows one owner's walk-through, which may be helpful.

Hi Guys
I think i am setteled on a Rpod 171. Its a 2011 and it available very close to my home 30 mins. The guy used it just once last month going down to Florida and back up to PA. Everything looked good.
by any chance is there a thread which tells us what we should be looking at while buying a used Rpod. the unit is still under warrenty.
Thanks
Rudy

Welcome Rudy!  I'm up in Berks County not far from you.  I may have a lead on a 171 R-pod for you.  (Depends on if the deal comes through on a camper we are looking at works out)
