So excited! Just bought first new trailer, after days of research and online learning went for the rpod 178. Celebrating our 20th anniversary this year we want to travel the country without compromising comfort and with out stress and expense of a big rig. Looking forward to this forum to help with the storage and organizing ideas to make our r pod perfect for us! Thank you for having us. ------------- realizing a lifelong dream! Leslie and Paul |

| We just bought the same and after searching for over a month, I feel like the Rpod brand was the best available for the size and price that we were looking for. All the people on this forum have been very helpful and informative. I am just learning and probably won't have too much advice for you for awhile, but do wish you the best and feel as if any question you have can be answered on this forum. Congratulations on your 20 year marriage too! |

| Make sure you bring it in every six months to get inspected. Mine is a little over a year and they won't cover the leak. |

Congrats & welcome! And don't forget about the second year warranty for 150 bucks. IIRC, you have 30 days to get that into FR. Good luck with your new Pod. They're sure fun! ------------- John & Teri Tundra 5.7L V8 / RP 180 E2 WDH / Integrated controller (POS) replaced by Tekonsha P3 |
