New Rpod Owners

I don't have a problem fixing things and am impressed with many features in the Rood but there is romm for improved quality control.

Purchased a new 179 this summer and have made several trips including a month long trip to the San Juan Islands in Puget Sound and the Oregon coast. My wide and I are pretty happy with the Rpod, although we have had a number of problems with it. Most of which I have fixed. The most significant issue was a problem with the slideout not retracting on our first night out. Removed panel beneath the refrigerator and found that the power wires became disconnected. Fixed this, later the slideout was catching on the side seat plywood covers. Installed thinner plywood covers to partially fix this.  Will return to dealer to see if slideout can be raised.  Have made many improvements for storage and organization and will share some of these later.

Hey there! My name is Camile and I just got my rpod about a year ago. Have had a few nice trips and am just getting used to setting up and tearing down. A slow process but it is all fun. Look forward to learning more about self majntenance here.

It's a huge downsize, indeed. But I immediately realized that this RV is better built than the previous one. Also, it's nice to be able to tell my kids "Sorry .. not enough room." ;-)

Good evening, everyone. My name is Adam, and I'm a brand new R-Pod owner (2017 R-Pod 178 — bought gently used). We've downsized from a 32-foot Jayco, after it was totaled by the insurance company due to a tornado that hit us during Hurricane Harvey. — My original RV was named The Jimmy Rockford. This one is called The Little Jimmy. — I'm a writer by trade and a cook by hobby. Eagle Scout class of 1987, so I have plenty of 'roughing it' experience. I never expected I would live in an RV (2015-17) or own one for partial living (Harvey reconstruction of the house — and now occasional vacations), but my accidental views of this forum have prompted me to join and hopefully contribute. So far, I've seen a ton of modifications here that look awesome. And, I've noticed that all of you are friendly folks. I'm looking forward to becoming a part of your group.
