Where's the garage? Isn't that what the "G" means? I love the dry bath and it has even more storage than our 181G, but I love my garage! The only problem I can see is the increased weight behind the axle and subsequent reduction in tongue weight. Wonder where the "tanks" are located in relation to the axle? I guess a good look at my dealer will answer all my questions. Any body know when the release is scheduled? ------------- Old Dingo and/or Mrs. Dingo 181G 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee |

| Interesting how it has some of the best features from several of the other models, except I do like the extra counter space in the 179, and not having to "put together" the bed. |

Any info yet on when this will be released into the wild? It is really going to make me regret ordering a hybrid so probably best if it doesn't come out for quite a while yet, lol. |

It is released, dealers can order and sell them now. Just up to them to start deciding to carry this specific model. ------------- https://calendar.google.com/calendar?cid=cnBvZC5zcG90dGVyQGdtYWlsLmNvbQ - RPod Rallies https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1W1foQXGtrjf8aYly1uh0b-bHPfI&hl=en_US - RPod Owner Map |

| In my national searches I have yet to see a single one on a dealer lot. I am curious to see one actually for sale. |

Yuh my dealer says he will have one in 3-4 weeks supposedly. I know the Dallas Oregon plant is just now getting their prototype model of it. ------------- https://calendar.google.com/calendar?cid=cnBvZC5zcG90dGVyQGdtYWlsLmNvbQ - RPod Rallies https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1W1foQXGtrjf8aYly1uh0b-bHPfI&hl=en_US - RPod Owner Map |

| Cool...make sure you shoot me a link or post it on here if you hear of any on the lots...anxious to see more pics of it. I doubt I can get out of my current order but I hope the model does well enough to stick around a few years. We are only two or three years from only needing a couples camper and this one is going to be perfect.. |
