Greetings from Idaho - R-pod Owners Forum

We recently brought home the 176T so we have those two smaller bunks similar to yours ;0) My eight year old loves her new bunk beds. Our also has that slide out kitchen. I have been playing with my new toy and we camped at home in it the first weekend ;0) You are going to love it!

Enjoy your new trailer!

Howdy Podders - thought I would introduce ourselves as we just made our first Trailer/Camper purchase this last weekend.

My wife and I (Sara) have two beautiful young boys (Zane and Chase ...5 and 3) so that is the roster for what we are dubbing the GarrPod Chronicles.

We were in the market for a tent trailer and after perusing Craigslist and local RV dealers I kept seeing that for what we wanted in a tent trailer the price was going up ...I had also seen the R-Pods out and about and thought they were the bees knees and if I was to ever "buy a camper/trailer" it would be the low-profile, niche style that I sat in those retort-cool/functional R-Pods. Long story short I came downstairs this Saturday and told my wife to pack up the kids ...we are going back to the RV dealer to look at R-Pods. She saw it, stepped in it and an hour later the paperwork was finished ...we take possession of our 2015 182g tomorrow and I have to say ...outside of our home this is the most exciting purchase we have ever made. We simply cannot wait to get out and camp with our Pod!

I spent yesterday pausing this forum and I absolutely love the information and community you have all built here. It is fascinating the sense of family and information sharing that goes on in this forum - we truly cannot wait to get after the camping and experience our Pod but also to learn and adjust/modify/customize the GarrPod as we go along.

Here's to making memories and thanks for having us here in the Forum.

Cheers,

-Nate

	Welcome. Like you, we felt like it was Christmas morning from the time we signed the paperwork until 2 weeks later when we picked ours up.

	Welcome, its nice to have another r-pod owner here in Idaho. We have a 179, and so far just love it. Only made the 80 mile trip home from Nelson's, then the next day towed it up to Riggins for the test campout.
