Thanks to everyone out there for all the tips, ideas, suggestions and advice.
But ultimately we've found the RPod to be just too small for our enjoyment.
Yes, we only had it for a few months, but we've decided to just pull the trigger and get what we really wanted from the very the beginning but just did not want to spend ridiculous $$. 
The Pod was great for learning the ropes and is a great little camper.
but in the end, after scouring seemingly every RV in the industry, just going to go all in.
Final choice?  Airstream 26U.

Wow! The starting MSRP is well over half what we paid for our house. Shocked I hope you got a good deal.

In our case the MSRP is 25% over the price we paid for our house.  Of course that was back in 1980 and we did get to pay 12% on our loan, thank you President Carter.

Well, yes - it is ridiculous $$ - more than my first house, and my second for that matter.
But about the same as a Corvette Z06 these days (if that makes any sense).
Ultimately got 15% off MSRP and what I paid for the Pod (14500).

Congrats on the new digs...
Make sure you go join "airforums".. very good group of people, and way better then the WBCCI forum. We agonized over getting another AS, but decided not to go down that road again.
