Just bought a new 2021 179. looks like loads of fun. There is a track mounted midway between the door and the slideout cook stove. It is about 4 feet off the ground. Is there a table that hooks to it? Anyone know? ------------- DPO |

I have no idea, they make changes on almost every build so I haven't heard of that. It might be a connection point to put a cooktop on?? ------------- 2017.5 Rp-172 2020 R-pod 195 2015 Frontier sv 4.0L 6cyl I'll be rpodding |

If you can post a picture we might be able to figure out what it is.... ------------- r･pod 171 gone but not forgotten! |

You might want to check with your dealer, maybe there is something that is missing from the factory. Sure looks like a rail that would support a outside table. ------------- Jay 179/2019 |

Looks to me to be a cook top mount. I think I've seen these on everything from pop ups, to the new 202. It could receive a table also, but I think they would supply the table it is did. ------------- 2017.5 Rp-172 2020 R-pod 195 2015 Frontier sv 4.0L 6cyl I'll be rpodding |

I think the rail is for a gas griddle that comes with the r-pod. We have one in ours, but didn't unpack and use it yet. ------------- Rick and Ellen B 2019 Chevy Colorado 2021 Rpod 196 |

May also hold a small prep table. Will try it later in the spring ------------- Rick and Ellen B 2019 Chevy Colorado 2021 Rpod 196 |

Looks like a rail to support an outdoor kitchen...I havent kept up with options on new models so that's only a guess. ------------- r･pod 171 gone but not forgotten! |

We had the same kind of rail on our old 1993 Jayco popup and it served a dual purpose. One for the inside table (which had a similar mount inside) and also for the cookstove. R-Pod is getting up to speed with the 1993 Jayco line. ------------- 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." |
