We are towing with a 2011 Toyota Tacoma 4 Door, short bed. 6 cyl, standard trans. Pulls the T@B like it's not even there so I am hoping the experience with an R-Pod will be similar.

Damour, you are right, and you are doing a great job figuring out the correct English to use.
 
Dealer and saler are the same thing.  Except you would say "seller" instead of saler.  A seller is anyone who "sells" something - think of Ebay Smile.  But the reason "dealer" is a better word in this case because this "seller" actually owns a business.
 
Using the word "saler" was a very good guess because anytime you "sell" (verb) something, then you just made a "sale" (noun).  A "sale" is the event in which a seller sells something to a buyer.
 
Let's just say your English is much better than my French!
 
Au Revoir!

Note:  the fridges in the 'pods and in most campers do NOT have compressors like a home fridge.  They run using a much older technology which uses ammonia and heat, which runs completely silent.  However, the 'pod also has two 12 volt exhaust fans in the back which are thermostatically controlled, which do make some noise when they come on.  In colder weather they don't come on, in warmer weather they will.

Damour...your "english" is probably better than mine!  If you really want to get confused, here is how a "hillbilly" would explain:
 
The "saler" is the feller who done sode ye yer trailer.  The "Dealer" is the feller who that otha feller works fer.  What ye call em depends on how ye feel about whut kinda deal they gave ye. LOL

KYMooses......Have you heard of a town called Gatliff, KY?  It is a "fly speck" on the map - just North and East of Jellico, TN.  That's where my folks are from.  My sister was born in Jellico.  Had I come a little sooner, I would have been also.  As it is, I'm a Hoosier, but raised "hillbilly".

Not Gatliff particularly, no.  But some of the other surround towns I'm familiar with.  How far up into Hoosierland are you anyways?

I live exactly half way between Brownsburg and Pittsboro.  It is West and slightly North of Indianapolis.  I have a Brownsburg mailing address, as they deliver my mail.  However, I do not live in either town - I am in the (unincorporated area) county.  The "membership map" is not terribly accurate, in my case. 
 
I have not run into anyone yet who has heard of Gatliff.  It is about 10 miles from Jellico (I-75).  There is not much there now....probably a lot less 20 years ago, when I was born. Tongue
