Hi All-- We just ordered the 176 which should come in by September. We had options to drive a few states away, but decided to stick with our local dealer. He gave us what we feel is a dandy of a deal for a never-been-stepped-in rig. I have scoured this forum already, and I've seen tons of insightful posts that will help me for the R-Pod experience. We had an old 2003 Flagstaff 23D, and I sold it in 24 hours on Craigslist. We wanted something smaller (but oddly, it doesn't feel much smaller inside). What I would like to know is what do I do now that I have to wait two months for it? What did you look forward to (if you had to wait)? We're very excited. |

Hello All! I told you a while back that we ordered the 176. Then I told you all that we'd be getting our dealer's first shipment of the new 10th Anniversary edition. Now, I can let you know that the Pod has arrived. We won't get it from the dealer 'til next week, but they were gracious enough to send some pics. I thought I'd enclose some of those pics so that you could see what FR is up to this year with color combinations. I know that some of you aren't a huge fan of the color, and that's OK...I have thick skin.  I know that you're a big fan of the R-Pod, and that's all the matters. So, I'm sure you'll share in our excitement of the many nights of fun that await.So, what do you think?       |

It looks like FR has gone with a lighter stain for the interior wood with dark accents. I like it! I have thought more than once that the wood color choice in our 2016 179 was too dark. I'm not overly fond of the exterior, but the interior looks great. ------------- StephenH Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7712 - ouR escaPOD mods Former RPod 179 Current Cherokee Grey Wolf 24 JS |
