I see you got the cowling on. What is going on top of it?

Its looking good! Perhaps it will give Forest River ideas on a future new model of a r-pod. ------------- 2018 Vista Cruiser 19BFD (2018- 2012 Vibe 6503 (2014-2019) 2009 r-pod 171 (2009-2014) Middle Tn 2014 Ram 1500 Quad cab |

I didn't mean the "Vibe" comment in a derogatory way. The workmanship & vision involved is amazing. It has to improve the aerodynamics of an already slippery design. I'm just wondering how much more weight there is on the frame, when completed & filled, compared to factory fresh.
It looks great! Darryl ------------- Darryl, Julie & Lindsey Cooper & Libby- Devoted Canines 2014 RP178 2006 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon |

wow. Marwayne we are still in winter mode here in eastern ont. With 3 feet of snow on the flats at least and snow banks and drifts 4-5 feet. I'm not even thinking of bringing "R" pod home (main reason HUGE snow drift in front of hoop barn) till at least near end of April or early May. Envy you folks who can start working on your pods.  ------------- Ron & Shirley 2020 Tacoma 2012 177 rpod |
