Considering an Rpod

Greetings from Hailey, neighbor.  Jeff here.  Just left you a voice mail.  We just confirmed everyone's suspicion on this forum...everyone in Idaho must know each other.    

All I can say is come this spring, drive around the valley and start counting how many pods you see.  Once you keep an eye out for pods, they start popping out of the woodwork.  I remember driving home from work one night and spotting one across the field over in lower Northridge.  I drove over and I found four within 3 blocks.  We got our 179 after a friend had one and I got B to take a look at it.  We have been super pleased with our and have not had any major problems.  Have we tweaked a few things to fit our needs, yes.  Do I wish they had and used a darn shop-vac at the factory, yes.  But given the opportunity to clean up a little sawdust or reapply some caulk that I felt was poorly executed vs. shelling out and additional $10M+, I'm happy to do it.  

I know our valley is heavy with Sprinters, Sportmobiles, and VW's.  I just had friends get rid of their Sprinter full conversion and move over to a R POD.  They didn't like that when they were camped out somewhere, when they wanted to go anywhere, they had to "pack-up" since their transportation was also their shelter.  It's nice to unhook the pod and head out to adventure and know your camp spot will still be when you return.  As far as all the weekend warriors who battle up to Redfish for the week with there huge trailers, the can have it.  We like be able to head out on our own and stretch our legs.  We've taken the pod up over Trail Creek with no problem.  Granted, it's a slight pucker.  

You and Barb come by and I'll give you the grand tour of our 179.  We're headed out for spring break to Sedona next week, but she's all dialed and ready to go.  I'll fill you in on my thoughts were to buy.  

Talk soon.

Jeff
