Very warm welcome is much appreciated. 

So I saw on another thread about the Jayco Hummingbird. I looked it up and though I really like the powered awning and the off road "baja package" I am still leaning towards the Pod. I did some research on Jayco in general and they seem to have some real quality issues. I mean like tons of bad reviews and "strongly worded" warnings. Plus it's a 2017 and several thousand higher than the 2016 Pod we are going to look at tomorrow. I have read some of the QC issues here on the pods but nothing like what I found in 10 minutes of searching for Jayco reviews. 

Here's our tow vehicle ... 

Just kidding this is. Tongue

They only have 4 in stock, only one 179 (a 2016) and it's listed for 2 g's over the one I am going to look out tomorrow, but thanks for the heads up.

Welcome.  You may find you shower in the pod more often, I feel it is easier and quicker to use the shower that is right there.

Well bad news, the 179 we were going to look at got sold (at 13k fully loaded I am not surprised) but we still have yet to see a 179 in person. Unhappy
We did go look at the hummingbird 17rk to try to get a feel for size and floor room and what not. 
So now we are just waiting for the 17 to come in I guess.
