Calendar Event: New 175 owners Posted: 05 Feb 2010 at 4:13pm |
Hi Leslie, I don't know how much help we can be because we purchased our 2010 r-pod 175 as "used." We did see the original paperwork and the asking price was very similar to the one you are interested in, about $200 more, I think. It came with the same options. Linda

Thanks! Our closest RPod dealer is in Calgary. I guess I'll compare it with their price, because the other dealer is in Saskatchewan.

Lesley - IMHO the closer to home you can purchase, the better. It is my understanding that only the Dealer that sells you a Pod, is obligated to do warranty work...check the Forest River web site.
With that said however, RV Nation seems to have the best prices around. You might want to check their price + shipping cost + exchange rate (I'm assuming you are in Alberta, Canada and would not pick up in Ohio).
My philosophy is to always counter offer less...all they can do is say "no".
Good luck and I'm sure you'll enjoy!

Thank you, Terry, will do. The RP-175 actually came with two batteries with nice covers. We will definitely follow your advice and drill those holes.
