Welcome!
I am paying 18,000$ for a 189 with power jack, ac, tv, Microwave and 500$ delivered to my door fee. That includes the R-dome.
I'm looking for some out back boondocking so I wanted an insect free space outside not just an awning.
Awning is however quicker and easier to set up.

Welcome! Are you in northern or southern California? And if comfortable saying more, what general region of either of those? On the face of it, it seems a good price in any case (for California, I realize the difference between here and other parts of the country).

dtc1nick,
From all I can gather price is relative to area. I have seen posts that seem to indicate prices are higher on the west coast. What we in middle America may pay 14-15 K for is somewhat higher in your area. The market supports that by area. Everything is only worth what the market supports. The price will be supported by what people will pay IMHO. I realize you have probably shopped around and taken in consideration the relative time to get to dealer. In the Midwest that price would be high, but on the coast it may be fair.

Welcome to the forum.
As for the price for a 180, there are many on the site who are really up on the values of new Pods. I'm sure you hear from several. As important as price is the dealer from whom you buy. It is likely you will have some warranty issues and a dealer who is willing to take care of them is very important. Seems there are many strings in this site in which people describe having problems with post purchase service often because they bought the trailer quite far from where they live and the local dealer doesn't want to deal with the warranty claims on a trailer he didn't sell.

Hi everyone, looking to purchase a new 2018 R-pod 180 this weekend. They are trying to sell it at $16,995.00 is that a good price? Thanks in advance for your time.
