I am new to the R-Pod world. Found a 2011 that looks like the inside was never used. I was about to buy an Aliner when I spotted the Pod. Its the perfect size and tows remarkable well behind my 2007 Tacoma. I live in the Florida Keys so its a trek to find a dealer. Found it in Ft. Pearce fl. Only have one question at the present time, there is a track above the slide out and have no clue what its for. Any one out there know? I'm sure I'll have questions in the future but for now I'm just a happy camper. No pun intended. JimO ------------- JimO |

It's for a slider awning, covers the slider when it is out and keeps water off Moe ------------- Jo and Gary, 2010-174,2011 F150
