Topic: Cost without options? Posted: 31 Aug 2014 at 11:21pm |
Have your dealer order it with the pod, otherwise you will be paying for separate shipping.

We are looking at getting the 2015 R-179. r-Dome is extra but dealer did not have a price for it. I have looked for a phone number to call FR but can not find one. How did you can in touch with them,could you post a name and number for me?
Thank You and Happy Camping

Shipping cost on a R-Dome is normally high on items ordered directly from FR. Is it included in the $535.00?

Not sure where to post this question...but I think it fits here so here goes! Oh and if it should be some place different Please feel free to move it to the right place.
Does anyone know the price of the R-Dome for the 2015 179 ? ? We looked at one today,but the dealer did not know the price of the dome.
Thanks and Happy Camping to all

The 179 doesn't slope at the back. It is a longer amount of headroom which allows the kitchen to be at the back. Also the amount of storage space is amazing.

The slide on a 179 is wider and deeper, making it the largest pod. Check the floor plans on the R-Pod web site.

I thought the longest pod was 20 feet, and there are about 5 models at 20 feet. How can the 179 be the largest? In what way is it larger? I think it's the newest? I do like the 179. Thanks.

Whatever you get, be sure to get the axle risers. These things sit low and are easy to drag without them. Our dealer orders all of them with the risers because they had to do so many repairs on the ones without. It also brings the step to a more normal height.

Hood River not available in KY. Also - the ONLY difference with that one now is tire tread, and a few colors on some stuff.
