Wow. Our 2014 178 has the entertainment center just inside the entry door. That dealer must have had some old stock....

We hated the entertainment center over the bed- probably the main reason we went with the 179. It was the only model in stock without it

One change that we waited for in the 2014 (model change) was the entertainment center. The first 2014 177 had the entertainment center above the main bed. The later 2014 177 the entertainment center was move to the side. That is what we wanted.

CasaJack: The R-pod models being sold in the Cincinnati area are 2015 models. When I first started looking at Pods a month ago, they were listed as 2014 models. Not sure what, if any changes there are on the 2015 model. I pick up my 2015 179 on Friday.

I have spoken with a dealer recently. A mid-April 'sale' on their lot will reduce 2014 inventory to make room for 2015 models arriving in May. He said there would be no price increase on 2015 models, which seems to indicate that there are no new features--it's simply a model year changeover. R-Pod manufacturers tend to incorporate improvements during the model year whenever they wish, so in that sense it makes no difference to wait. I suppose from a re-sale standpoint, having a newer model year unit might pay off better down the road, but note that the 179 was released a couple of months ago as a 2014 model and it's selling extremely well.

I am not the best typist, especially after 2 in the morning. Thanks for catching the error, Doug. Bob
