Saw a pod yesterday driving west on Vt rte 15 in the town of Hardwick at about 1540 hrs.
It is great to see Pods passing through Vermont!

I spotted a pod today at Road America in Elkhart Lake Wisconsin. We were watching the Vintage Car road races and towards the end of the event a pod was leaving the grounds. Any one of this group?

2009-10 RP172 camped along with us at Dakota Ridge RV Park, Golden Colo. Sept. 14-15. Colo tags

Two Pods lost among all these $250K 6 and 8 wheeled beasts. We could fit in the basements of these rigs!

Camp on..........................

I have told it here before, but in Colorado a big rig pulled in next to us overnight. I was out early in the morning and the rig's owner told me that when he pulled in and saw our Pod he laughed. Then he looked it up on the internet and he was impressed. "You have everything in that little thing" he said.

During our last night at Dakota Ridge, Golden, CO, a third Pod pulled in. 2013 or 14 RP182G with Texas tags. THREE pods in on campground! Still lost among the 6-8 wheeled beasts. Crummy as it is I get a lot better gas mileage than they do.

Hello Keith-N-Dar I believe you spotted us leaving Elkhart. We are from Eastern PA and were on our way home from a three week trip to Montana. We also spotted a Pod while in a rest area in South Dakota. New to fourm and have enjoyed reading it this week. Trip was great and the pod performed well with the exception of the microwave door release handle cracking. ( Could have been thar 40 mile stretch of dirt road into camp.) Kelly n Linda

Hope you enjoyed the vintage weekend at Elkhart Lake!  My brother and I would go to the races at the airport in Santa Barbara, California and see many of the same cars race.  Reminds me of my misspent youth.  It will be with the Pod next year I think.
