 After a year of researching, scouring craigs list, comparing TT's, A frames, learning forum lingo and a whole lot more we finalized on a 2015 179 with Java interior. Just a quick stop on the way home from work to settle on colors to tell Couch's and our local dealer decided to get competitive. Only cost a little more to get a 179 from him and have it next week rather than to wait till mid Nov. on a 177. Nothing wrong with Couch's but I'm glad we could put a deal together locally. I would like to thank Podster, Techntrek, and especially LeoB for their posts and everyone else whose posts I have read and gained so much knowledge from. This forum is awesome. I can't wait to get her home, apply some forum mods, get her camping and post some experiences myself. I'll post some pics next week. Thanks again everyone! ------------- Joe & Terri 2015 179 2015 Ram 1500 crew cab/ eco diesel 2005 Ram 1500/ Tekonsha Controller Lovestarved Pom/Demanding Chihuahua |

I hope so as well. Couch's sell more than 400 of these a year is why they can discount so much. I believe in supporting local but not if its going to cost me thousands. Luckily my local guy was able to put a competitive deal together. ------------- Joe & Terri 2015 179 2015 Ram 1500 crew cab/ eco diesel 2005 Ram 1500/ Tekonsha Controller Lovestarved Pom/Demanding Chihuahua |
