greetings: I've owned 2 pods, a 171 and a 179 (2015) Pods like everything is built to a price point. They are not perfect but I've had very few problems and they have never left me stranded. From a purely economic point of view, RV's don't save you much as far as traveling. However, it's sure nice to have your own bed and stuff along and if you enjoy parks, and having a roof, it's great. Folks spend a great deal of money on many toys. If you enjoy and can afford it::: go for it. Crankster78 R-179

Flanker. I agree with everything that has been said here about the rpods. The only thing I would add is this. IF you buy new, check on the after sales service of your rv dealer. The RV dealer is almost 95% of your GOOD rv experience. We have had our 177 new since 2012 and have had great service from our rv dealer. I would buy without a second thought an rpod from our local dealer.

+1 Also, if you have any concerns, please clarify before leaving. I recently had a misunderstanding about some repairs that could have been avoided if I had asked for clarification or if the technician explaining the repairs had been more detailed in his explanation. Now that I have the correct information, I am very satisfied with my dealer's support.

Hi and welcome! Three thoughts in addition to what others here have said: 1-You could try renting to see if you like hauling and using a travel trailer. 2-If you have your own RPOD maybe you'll go camping more than twice a year. 3-Yes I have and do recommend RPODS to my relatives and friends. Let us know what you decide!
