Greetings from a potential R-Pod'r

Hi All, I'm on a flight to Chicago (150,000 air miles so far this year), so I thought I'd say hi. My wife and I live in Central Oregon, surrounded by so much beauty, and to counteract all of my time spent on planes and in hotels, we are looking at trailers. I also envision many great trips when I retire in 2017.

Funny, we started looking at R-Pods, then my wife got on a bigger trailer kick (she's usually frugal and simplistic) and we found a zillion trailers that looked great, but they are all "too much". Plus, my little ol' Ridgeline only pulls 5,000lbs, meaning another truck would be needed.

Well this past weekend, I brought the trailer thing up, and said I'm off the big trailer idea and want to go back to looking at R-Pods. She agreed we need to go back to smaller/simpler!

So, we're pretty set on a 183G-mostly for the "full-sized" head (I'm 6'2 and 210lbs) and the garage. It's also a good layout for us and our yellow lab, Toby. My thought was to go into our local dealer on Dec 23 or Dec 30 with checkbook in hand and see what kind of deal we can cut. Hopefully we'll be all set for some adventure come Spring. Wish us luck!
