Topic: 2010 r-pod for sale-Starting Bid $175- Posted: 20 Sep 2014 at 7:13pm |
Its just a flesh wound! (Jeff Dunham)
Dang, I'd jump on it too if it were closer. It would take me 4 solid days of driving round-trip and over $1000 in gas so not gonna happen. If it could be repaired I'd try, if not, yes I'd take that water heater for the Salem and the fridge for the pod, part out the rest and turn the frame into a utility trailer.

I thought of it being good for parts, but still think that if someone was handy enough could fix it. It doesn't have to look original when done but good enough to go camping in.

The estimated repair cost was over $10,000. Not worth fixing IMO, but if it sells cheap enough it could be a good parts source, ie techntrek wants a DSI water heater for his other trailer... I'd love to know the story of how that damage was done- like said maybe trying to back it into a garage, maybe while drunk, and at 20 mph

If it was close to home, I would be interested. Looks like a fun project for marwayne too. It doesn't look in that bad of shape, could repair it to look similar to a 179.
