This got me wondering what magnitude of savings might accrue if a "Parks Only" edition of the R-Pod were available.  (Or maybe "Us Only" is the better term....)

The two-burner gas cooktop has been removed in favor of additional counter space, for example.  We simply do not cook inside the trailer except for an occasional microwave warm up and the coffee maker.

A very small ceramic heater is more than sufficient to take the chill off the coolest Florida mornings, and the water heater is always on shore power as is the fridge.  This pretty much eliminates the need for propane and the gas bottle still has the charge that it came with.  It and the associated plumbing could go.

We are always hooked up to city water.  How much does the water tank and pump system cost?

My opinion of the Jensen entertainment package has been documented in other threads, so I'll simply say "no thanks".

The bathroom sink and shower probably don't cost much, but they could be eliminated.

Now I realize the re-sale implications of stripping out the 'Pod and customizing it to our specific whims, so the question is fairly rhetorical.  I also understand that the "assembly line" production does not lend itself to customization and that any hardware savings might be more than offset by a labor increase.  

All this is just something I contemplate from time to time while lounging in the R-Dome with an NA beer.
