What the HECK is a dual axle?

Or do you mean tandem axles?

Just being picky...you know, like offgrid...

Nothing like using the proper nomenclature to avoid confusion...

Still tapping my toes! Fun video...

See? I could hear you listening....

But seriously, in transportation/trailers, 'dual' means side by side, 'tandem' means one ahead of the other.

Dual wheels, but tandem axles.

Weird Al is my fav.

If you've ever had to deal with corporate doublespeak you'll love this one:


And getting back on topic, I can "visualize" the execs at FR "monetizing their assets" in the rPod brand by "building a consensus" to introduce the 202 which has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN COMMON with the original rpods besides the name.

   I myself do not like the walk through bathroom that is what we had with our Vibe. It does save space and makes more use of the space allowing more room for other parts of the camper. I was told by a salesman our Vibe model was discontinued because of the walk through bathroom it was not liked.

The pictures of an actual RPod 202 posted by Travis on Facebook clearly show both the model number and that it has two axles in a tandem arrangement. And, for the record, my first post said double, not dual axles. Big smile
