Thanks guys appreciate the info. I am handy with a welder and metal so I might see what I can do in a year when the warranty is up. Also thought about towing a real small trailer behind the r-pod.. I don't know about that yet though

When you go to welding under there, remember to protect the water proof membrane under the bottom of the pod.And.. towing a trailer, behind a trailer, is only legal in a few states, make sure you check ahead before you do it. California law says:CA DMV web site says:    No passenger vehicle, pickup truck,
or RV may tow more than one other vehicle without a Commercial Class A
license, with endorsement.

Yep, Class A and doubles endorsement. I likely won't, but it's nice to know I can if I want to get crazy lol

I think the laws usually require the forward trailer to be a 5th wheel.
