Welcome and Congratulations! We have the 179. It is currently at the factory for repairs from an accident in December. We will be picking it up in June also. It will be exciting to get it back.

I just picked up my new 178 Tuesday! Can't wait to get her out and about!

We picked up our 178 a couple of weeks ago - had fun with in the driveway and then went camping last weekend. It's better than we imagined. What a great camper. We did upgrade to a memory foam mattress and made sure we had a good coffee pot. What else do you need?

A couple newbie mistakes - we didn't park close enough to the gray water dump tank for our starter hose to reach so couldn't use water the last day until could move the Pod. We will get a better, longer hose, use less water washing dishes and watch how we park the unit next time. Also - hung too many wet towels inside after an evening shower so too much condensation created over night. We are in search of a good outside towel hanging solution.

You made a great choice in the 178. We had five gals around the table and could have fit a couple more.

Welcome to the club and enjoy!
