We got it and its all set up in the driveway.Doing our first driveway camp tonight. Got to meet Bamapod and see their POD too!!!! We were sitting next to each other during the walk through! Photobucket is down so I can't post pics.

Towed great behind the Dakota.

Only issue so far is the hot water in the kitchen sink and the outside shower is hooked up to the cold side and vice versa with the cold....I just swapped the handle indicators(bathroom sink and shower were correct)Took me a few minutes to figure out why I wasn't getting hot water Confused

If it isn't too difficult to get to the fittings, you can simply unscrew them from the kitchen sink faucet and from the shower and reverse them. For the outside shower, I added  90 degree elbows for the shower as the lines were just taken up and bent to connect. When I removed the panel to look, I saw evidence of leakage. Since I was going to take it apart anyway, I thought I would fix it right.

Normally the cold faucet should be on the right. "Let no two Pods be built the same" - - FR

Hooked up and ready for the road...I think it was kinda funny that our pods were right next to each other when we got there. I believe there were 6 set up for delivery Friday morning....We were told they had about 28 camper deliveries this weekend Star

They look nice. I like the new spoiler. I'm not so sure about the awning since it does not look like it would keep much rain away from the door.

Here's a tip:
Take some rubber door edging and put it along the bottom of the door. A piece about 2 or 3 inches long will suffice. Use some silicone to glue it in place. Place it so that it will protect the door edge and fender if the door is opened too wide. It looks like there is still no stop to prevent the door from hitting the fender. This will address that so the fender does not get scratched up by the metal door edge.

I signed on my 172 this morning, woo hoo. Was cool seeing all the new pods at the dealer, they got in a dozen new units. I'm garaging mine at the dealer this winter and they are gonna go thru the whole thing and make sure everything works properly.  I will pick it up in the spring. Cant wait for may.
