Hi to you all on the forum. I feel fortunate to be able to connect with other Rpod owners. My wife and I are first time travel trailer owners and will be picking up our 2017 Rpod 179 in about two weeks. Looking forward to learning from you all as we start a new adventure. ------------- PK Colorado |

Welcome and congratulations! I hope you have many fun adventures and make many great memories in the process. We have enjoyed our 2016 RP179. I have done a number of modifications (see link in signature) to make it more to our liking. Some of them may give you some ideas for yours.

Welcome from a 177 owner in Ont. We all were newbies at some point. Just ask if you have a question and you'll get an answer almost right away... More than likely a few dozen answer's.... This is a great forum for help to ALL pod owners no matter how long they have owned their trailer. ------------- Ron & Shirley 2020 Tacoma 2012 177 rpod |

Welcome and congratulations! We really love and enjoy our 2017 179, and from everything I gather everyone, or most everyone, loves the model they buy because it's what works best for them. So far I've accomplished the highly skilled mod of labeling light switches, particularly the porch light and the bathroom switches. My guy is working on other stuff for our Pod and will post at some point. Have fun and let us know when you have it! ------------- 2017 R-Pod 179 HRE (the green one) His:Ford F150 double cab 4WD; Hers/mine:Tacoma V6 double cab 4WD Still love rugged, diggin' comfy too |

Soon to be Newbies! We just purchased a 10th Anniversary RPOD 179. Been waiting for this day for well over 2 years now. We live just outside Traverse City, Michigan. Will be picking it up from the dealership outside Cincinnati in the Spring. Very much looking forward to becoming a fellow Frogger! Jack and Gail K. |

Congratulations Jack and Gail, We are just north of Traverse City about 25 miles, so that just about makes us neighbors. Bet you are excited to pick up your 179. Hopefully we can cross paths in the future. We purchased our 177 back in January 2011 and picked it up in Escanaba, a 4 hour drive. It is a fantastic TT, may you make a lot of great memories with your 179 as you traverse this great country. ------------- God's pod '11 model 177 '17 Ford F-150 4WD 3.5 Ecoboost Jim and Diane by beautiful Torch Lake "...and you will know the Truth and the Truth will set you free." |
