P&M:
Welcome...we are new also and have a 171 which we love.  We've made a few mods.  The most important being a longer sewer tube holder for the newer rhino hose with attachments.

The other is replacing ALL the bulbs with LED's.  It makes a big difference in current draw.

The other stuff is just gingerbread and comfort things which you will discover.

We've been out a few times and each time, we learn something new.  We got the RDOME which is really nice and gets both a lot of looks and nice comments in the campgrounds.

Woohoo!  We pick up our new 171 on Thursday.  I am so excited.  We have three trips planned before the end of November.

Where are you located?  

Hope to see you out there.

New 171

We are located in Goldendale, WA (South Central Washington State near the Columbia River).  Our first expedition took us to an Island in the Columbia called Crow Butte...on to the Yakama Nation RV park and later on over to the Deschutes River where it runs into the Columbia.

You will love your POD and travels in it.

We are in the Charlotte, NC area, and are picking up ours on the 19th.  First night driveway camping at home to get stuff moved into the Pod, first overnighter a couple weeks later for a shakedown, and then 4 days over Thanksgiving for our first "real" trip!

I know exactly where you are located and where you went camping.  My wife and I were both born/raised in Spokane and have lived all over the NW (Spokane, Pullman, Vancouver, Seattle) before moving down here 12+ years ago.  Miss it terribly!
