| Hi.this is my very first question I post on this forum. I want to thank everyone in advance for their answers. I've been searching long and hard for an answer to my question, but can't find it. My question is, is it impossible for a man who's 6'3ft tall to sleep comfortably in a 2010 rp172? I would love a small trailer. I've landed on this one they sell online. I called the owner, but he can't give an answer. I've seen some of the interior dimensions online, and they seem to suggest I won't fit. But, I'm hoping someone can tell me if there's a way I can. Btw, the rpod is in "like new" condition. Is $9000 a fair price? |

This really isn't that specific, all pods have a short queen bed, or near to, and they all run wall to wall. A 172 is going to have the big dinette, that makes into a queen. That said, we do have people that height that are comfortable, and we have people who are 5' 10" and thinking the bed is to short.. There is a lot of variance to what any one person is comfortable with. I am 6', and it doesn't bother me in the least, but, I have slept in way smaller spaces before. As far as "how" you would fit, most taller people sleep at an angle. I do sometimes. I have a brother who is 6'2" tall and his wife is 6' even, they sleep in a short queen together no issue. I would say, for a 2010 172, $9000 is at least $1500 to high. Or at least it would be here. ------------- |

| Thanks all. What would be a good price for something like that. I know the market may vary from region to region. I live in deep South Texas. |

I would say 7,500 to 8,000. We got 10,000 for our 171 last year. It was in really good condition. ------------- Leo & Melissa Bachand 2017 Ford F150 2021 Vista Cruiser 19 csk Previously owned 2015 Rpod 179 2010 Rpod 171 |

| Yes...i just saw another one from a local dealer. Same year and model. The guy said they want 10,000, but he'll go down to 9,000. I'm gonna offer him 7,000 plus 1998 Mazda pickup as down payment. The rpod is in darn good shape. It appears that no one ever used it! |
