| We just purchased our first R-Pod this week and selected a 178 from Pontiac RV in IL. Only a 1 hour drive from home. On the drive home over flat farmlands it became apparent that out Toyota Sienna Minivan with a tow package that so ably towed our pop up was going to have a stroke moving the 178 any faster that 55 mph. So yesterday off to a local Toyota dealer we went. Snatched up a certified used 2013 Toyota Tacoma with only 12k miles on if. Once we install the brake controller next week we will be on the road. |

Welcome. Yup, once you get above 55 it can be a struggle if you have a head wind. ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual
