My wife and I are proud owners of a nearly new 2009 RP171 - yes, nearly new! We lucked out. We live in Saskatchewan, Canada and have already put on 800 km / 500 mi pulling with our Ford Windstar van. No problems pulling. And no, it wasn't all flat-land driving, :) cheers.

Thanks to P&M, TechnTrek, and FurPod for the kind welcomes to this forum. :) We are looking forward to doing a lot of learning as we go along. And, perhaps more importantly, making new friends. cheers from Robert and Maureen, the Saskatchewan Gypsies

I was stationed in Yorkton Sask. The station is closed now. I got down to Swift Current once and to moose Jaw a couple of times. I was going to question your saying that your driving was not all flatland driving but if I remember right there are some hills around Speedy Creek. ------------- Sean, 2011 Rpod RP-173,2009 Jeep Liberty Rocky Mountain Edition

Love our 171. We just changed to a better mattress, hung a mirror, knife holder, and paper towel holder... ------------- Tow Vehicle: 2013 Pathfinder 4WD R-POD Model 171
