| We bought our little rPod 178 in December. We've had it on the road twice so far and love it! Our first major mod was a sleepnumber mattress, and for us it was well worth the money! Looking forward to many trips with our 5 yo chocolate lab puppy. |

It's called.. "6th annual eastern roundup.." http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5267&PN=1&title=6th-annual-eastern-round-up - Linky Are you guys going to be out west? If not, you should come.. I know there are others coming from your general local.. It is a pretty good get together. And this year I am not in charge so I can party like a rock star the first couple days I will be batchin it.. Then SWMBO gets in... and things calm down some.. LOL ------------- |

Ah, I was looking for one that actually said WV in the title, I had forgotten the Eastern Roundup was there... It would be doable for a long weekend, a little over 6 hours away. But the last 2 years I was running around like a chicken the last few weekends before our summer trip and I'm sure this year will be the same. We'll be doing the entire east coast this time around. ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual

| What part of Virginia are you from? We to are from VA and just bought a 178. Took it out for just an overnight in Thursday and had a good time, just wish we were able to stay longer. |
