I'm looking at a 2015 RP-176 the paper catalog that was giving to me has all the pods with green exterior. the pod that is at the dealer is not. Are all 2015 pods green?

Also, this pod has the "interior and exterior luxury package" I noticed this pod did not have the outdoor shower. Don't all 2015 pods come with the outdoor shower?

Please helpOuch

The catalog says that the exterior luxury package comes with an outdoor shower. I just want to make sure that what the dealer is saying is on the up and up.

I bought a 2015 model 178 and it dark green and has the outside shower. One thing that I noticed was that mine has the black h2o rinse out on the port (left) side. I like this since all other hookups are located on the same side. Also my TV bat wing is located on the roof above the slide out.

The New 2015 176 green color scheme looks like the black and grey tanks go into one, and the other 2015 with the older color has two (one for the black tank and the other for the grey) 

any thoughts?

If the model of R-Pod allows one outlet they have one if not they will have two.  It is based on the floorplan.  Although as noted above the 2 different factories will sometimes do things differently, such as the black tank flush and which side it is on.

And just for information purposes, the new current color scheme ran for a few months before the outdoor showers started running on the Pods.

I almost bought the cream colored 179 today only to find out from a dealer they are left over from 2014 but came out in the beginning of 2015. The green color which does have some up grades is being referred to as a mid 2015. Bought the Green 179 today!

I wonder sometimes if they "change" the model year of some items?  One sure way you can tell the year of a model, is look at the VIN, the 9th digit tells you the year.  I don't think legally a dealership can change a VIN once it's assigned to a vehicle.

RV manufacturers will change models mid year a lot more often that auto manufacturers. I think it is because the tooling is a lot easier to change for RV's than for cars and trucks.
