I was seriously looking at the 191 as an eventual replacement for my 179, but it looks like it is now dealer stock only. So no longer a twin bed model available. I guess the NoBo 16.2 needs another look.

Wow. But there's nothing cute about that NOBO! My 172 was a compromise. I wanted at 1960s shasta and my travel buddy wanted a boat. We started looking at houseboats (whew, bullet dodged). 
He didn't want anything old but at least the rpod has character.   :)

I did. Adorable but too heavy for me and really only one sleeping space unless you tear apart the dinette all the time.

We looked at them and formed the same impression as well, but the glamping cachet of the retro trailers was never a high priority for us.

Here I was thinking that my r-pod looked compact and muscular, potent and powerful....

And you want 'cute'?

Deja vu all over again....I thought you already bought  another trailer?
