Greetings:
Everything is built with a price point in mind  You want a top dollar RV buy Airstream or something similar.

I've owned 2 pods and feel I've got good use, with few problems.  I travel by myself so have done some mods that work for me.

I have to say when we bought our pod in fall of 2010 I saw the lack of quality control.
 Buy a new house good luck. I looked at the 172 very carefully, but in my mind I could see what I wanted it to look like So therefore I always say to people I didn't by the pod for what it was, but  what I can turn it into.

Cool! I also wonder, what single thing or area would you improve?

It's easy to be critical of the makers however, they are in business to give us what we want - at a price we are willing to pay. There is a constant "tug of war" between these two.

Absolutely! I don't mind paying extra for quality. If anyone doubts that just ask a Lance owner why they paid so much.

I'm just curious.

From time to time we read remarks about the "lack of quality" in Pods and RVs, in general.

I wonder - would you (seriously) be willing to pay more for a Pod IF you could see a noticeable improvement in the delivered product? Would you pay more IF the cost of a Pod was higher than the "copy cats".
