Ok, first trip with the new 178 is a done deal! Short 2 nite trip, Lake Lawtonka, Okla. Pulled fine with my chevy Silverado, 6 cylinder, transmission temp ran a little high, 206-210 deg. Note to self, check into trans cooler. Everything operated the way it was supposed to. Microwave was hot, a/c was cold , exhaust fan was more than adequate with the windows opened for sleeping. Shower is small!! Couldn't sync my phones to unit, neither blue tooth nor usb, for music lists. Probably operator error! Tv was good, cd player worked fine, [needs better speakers]. Speaking of speakers, 'A' speaker is inside speaker, 'B' is outside, I couldn't figure out what 'C' was for. All in all, a very smooth trip. Even the dreaded dump station portion was no problem. Already making plans for the next trip! [will try to figure out how to post pics] ------------- gswilk |

C is only used on garage models, they are the only pods with 3 sets of speakers. And welcome, congrats on your first of many outings.. and dumps.  ------------- |

| Lake Lawtonka - I had a baited catfish hole there when I was stationed at Sill in the 80s, it was great. Also have a 178, Lake Lawtonka brings back good memories. Welcome |
