Saying hello.

I just bought a RP171.
Plan on using it for some weekend outings and rodeo.
Yup you heard me right. I have been announcing pro rodeo for 25 years
Decided I hate hotels so I bought the rPod.

Any tips , tricks or suggestions welcome.

We added the soft start AC kit.

Welcome aboard!  If things come up ask away as there are many 'seasoned' veterans who have a wealth of helpful knowledge to share.  I have benefited greatly over the years from others advice on this forum.  Do you plan on using your 171 year round or only during the normal camping months when the weather is a bit more tolerable?

Welcome and congratulations on your "new to you" RPod. +1 on Jato's post. I hope you have many fun adventures with it and make many great memories. One hint for the forum. If you do a search, choose the "Advanced Search" option. It will allow you to look at posts older than the default 6 months and refine your search more than the basic search.

Welcome to the forum. Hope you have many good times in the 171. My sister-in-law was a barrel racer for many years. Always enjoyed the small local rodeos the best but the big ones were fun as well.

Safe travels

Hello everyone , my name is Steve and I have owned my r pod for about 2 years and we are very happy with our couples coach. We have the RP195. We have been camping for about 25 years and have gone form a tent to a 24 foot Fleetwood. Now we are back in a 19 foot r pod and could not be happier.

The owners forum is a great way to get the word out for all of us owners so we are all aware of possible problems we may be having. 

Can someone tell me where I should post regarding major issues I am having with my coach so that I may help others,

Thanks
Steve
