Topic: Cheyenne Camping Center Posted: 24 Oct 2015 at 7:32pm |
Hi
We purchased our 179 Pod from Cheyenne RV as well-saved $5000 over the price asked by a dealer on the Western Slope of Colorado. They treated us great and responded immediately to a problem with our TV. Definitely worth the trip to Iowa!

I to bought my Rpod RP180 from Cheynne Camper Center in Setember, 2016. I drove from my winter home in Arizona, little town of Brenda, near Quartzsite, Arizona. I was in Walcott, Iowa in 4 days. They are the best Dealer I ever bought from. Saved $5000 from any dealer in Arizona, that includes, Quartzsite, where there is as many as a hundred dealers in the winter. ( Quartzsite Vacation Show) . Almost a million folks, mostely retired, like myself. Going on right now,Jan. 20th thru the 29th. Been camping 50 years, bought many trailers. It's worth the drive, as far as warranty work, I do my own, that way I know its done right. I love my Pod, lots of improvements, though, 2-5 lbs Propane tanks, 2 batterys, small safe built in the bathroom,all doors, no nets,carry a 10 foot Porta-Bote, mounted on the door side, awning on top of the slide-out, permanent mounted table, there is only the two of us, 2-100 watt solar panels mounted on my pickup topper to charge the batterys.Ready for Alaska, this summer.

The best way to look for solar or purchase is, get on E-Bay and put in ( solar or controlers ) and you will find tons of info. I have Renogy 1oo watt panels, at about $120 to $175 each, but I have 6 other panels of other brands, and they all work. Now for the controller, ! have a 30 amp PMW solar panel battery regulator. The reason is, it has 3 connecters on it, 2, solar in, 2, to the battery bank, and 2, to the load. The panels put out 20, or more volts, but the batterys only can take up 14.2 volt charge then cut off, the rest of the volts go to the load ternimal, in witch, you can wire to anything else, Mine is wired to a 12v plug, that I run a 12volt refrigerator on, that is mounted in my truck bed. Ran all summer with the small refrig. on, never pulled down my batterys, also kept my trailer batterys charged. Great setup. Picked this info up from my retired RV'ers living in this Resort I live in for the Winter. Hope the info helps. God Bless, You & yours. Galen.
