Thanks. That is what I have for a tow rig. 2007 V6 tacoma. I am glad to hear that


Just know that your gas mileage will drop to 10 and 11 mpg whentowing the pod. It gives you a limited range on travel because you’ll be making more gas stops.

Howdy from the RaptoRPod 179 in McKinney, TX!

If you're interested, there's a rally next month near Tyler. It's taking place September 20-23 at Jellystone Park.


I May show up to that if I can get a 180 by then. That could be my shake down trip before a 500+ mile trip.


You probably want to make a reservation sooner rather than later. You can always cancel it later if you don't get your 180 or can't make the event. We've already overflowed our allotted spots with reservations to date. Just call the office at Jellystone Park at Whispering Pines (903-350-0427) and mention the R-Pod rally.

Well,

You are going to be mad at me.  My neighbor down the street was selling a Micro Minnie 2106FBS.  He gave all the connections, upgraded sewer lines, 30/50/110V connections, WD hitch, sway bar.....I mean everything I would need to just go RV'ing.  I couldn't pass it up.  I still love the RPOD 180, but I couldn't pass up this deal.

Thank you for the help
