Hello!
Hubby (VenturaTom) and I are the proud owners of a 177 as of Nov. 11.  We've only taken it out one time so far, and discovered a few problems.
Got it back from service last week with a new propane regulator and a valve in the toilet (at least it only leaked CLEAN water!).
We'll be going for a weekend in Jan., so will be able to give it a proper test then.

Even tho we had issues that first trip out, we're very happy to be new Pod people, and look forward to many adventures.

Welcome VenturaDi!  You will find that once everything is worked out it is a great camper!  Hoping to be able to dig mine out from the snow bank and go camping between Christmas and New Years.

Cool to hear, I know you have been looking forward to the delivery for a while.  The regulator sounds like a common problem - ours still "pings" under heavy load and I may replace it this spring.

Big smile I'm a happy owner of a 177 now, too!  Picked it up from Dave's RV in Claremore, OK on the 23rd.  Can't wait to try it out.  If the weather cooperates,  I'll be bringing in the new year in it for my first outing!

Mamajoma, don't forget to post a review of your dealer in the Dealer Review section.

Smile We bought our 177 in November also and just got back from spending 3 weeks in Florida.  Only problem we can see is lack of storage, but have a few ideas.  I think they put the tv in the wrong spot and there is no reason for the sink in the "bathroom".  Other than that, we're quite happy.
