Greetings, All!
My wife and I are new podders, having bought our used 177 last August. Haven't had a chance to take it out yet, however. Traded our 12-year old Coleman Sante Fe tent trailer and nearly cried when I turned it in - too many fabulous camping trips in that rig! With kids pretty much gone and set-up getting more challenging every year (we sometimes travel-camp), it seemed like a full trailer was the way to go. Got a really clean year-old unit at a decent price. This is a great forum! Seems many of the questions I have had have been addressed already! Lookin' forward to some great travels this summer. Will post some pics once the weather gets a little nicer here. Thanks! ------------- "Camp, or die trying!" 2013 r-pod 177 2008 Chry T&C 3.6 litre V6 - 6-speed BillR |

Welcome from Ottawa!
You may have already noticed that we are hosting a FROG/R-POD rally at Ferris Prov. Pk. near Brighton, ON from June 4-7th. Would be great if you could join us. (For more information check out the Campout/Events tab). Cheers, David ------------- David & Liz 2014 R-Pod 178 2019 Chevy Traverse And Lily (our 8 yr old Golden)

Welcome. We felt the same way when our Coleman Grandview SP rolled down our driveway for the last time - and again when it was our pod. Amazing how the emotional bond develops because of all the good times. ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual

Welcome BillR, as David said consider joining us at Ferris Prov. June 4-7. David has done a great job of setting up what will be a fantastic rally. There are at least 2 other pods coming where this will be, if not their first time out maybe only the second time. Great time to ask any questions you might have about your pod/mods. There is at least one pod coming from the Waterloo area, and this rally will be their first time out. ------------- Ron & Shirley 2020 Tacoma 2012 177 rpod |

Wow! Thanks to all for a great welcome. The rally at Ferris sounds really neat, but not sure we're available that w/e. We usually do like to frequent the Provincial Parks, but Ferris is one we have not visited. I'm quickly learning there's a fabulous r-pod community out there! I've learned so much already!
Thanks again! ------------- "Camp, or die trying!" 2013 r-pod 177 2008 Chry T&C 3.6 litre V6 - 6-speed BillR |
