2013 R-Pod 172T for sale near Chicago, IL

2013 R-Pod Model 172T located near Chicago, IL

This is the rare 'T' hybrid or tent-end model R-Pod.  Forest River still offers the 176T, but no longer offers this lighter 172T model.  The build tag for our 172T shows a dry weight of 2500 pounds, and an additional cargo capacity of up to 1,227 pounds. While the dry weight doesn't really represent the total packed weight of the trailer, you can clearly see that this unit is one of the lighter R-Pods out there.  If you are looking to tow within the capabilities of a smaller or lighter tow vehicle, this R-Pod is well suited to that goal.

The R-Pod 172T has a great floor plan, with a large U dinette, kitchen, bath and shower, two large front bunks and the tent-end bed.  Here's a link to the floor plan: http://www.uvsconsole.com/manager/admin/cp-floorplans/large/136682203864560.jpg
