I recently purchased a new 178. I was a former pop up owner till I busted one of the lift mechanisms. When I took it for repairs I started looking at the pods. The rest is history.

I have took it out twice and I really like it. I mostly use it for camping while I trout fish. We just got back from Yellowstone when I broke the pop up. I will be taking it out again in a couple of weeks to the mountains. Plan on doing some Brookie fishing. Most of the time we are dry camping.

Hopefully I will have lots of adventures. Jim.

Congrats and great pic!

We bought our 178 two years ago this month. Yesterday we attended the largest RV show in the country in Hershey, PA. Walked miles of isles of TTs, 5th Wheels and Motor Homes. Aside from the Freightliner Show Hauler we (I) didn't see anything that was a better fit for us (Me) right now other than our RPod 178.

And...it was pretty obvious the Freightliner Show Hauler was really just a another "Low T" commercial.

Have fun!!
