Hello from central NM.  This is my first post.  I am considering purchase of a new rpod 171 Hood River Edition.  I live an hour out of Albuquerque and they have one in stock that I have looked at.  I have a new Ford F-150 XLT with the 3.5 ecoboost engine so towing the 171 should not be an issue.  The 171 has about everything I need and it will just be me using it.  Right now the only upgrade I am considering is going to a lithium battery and adding a Weight Distro Hitch.  I would be driving on fairly well maintained dirt roads on occasion.  Any thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated!  ]]> Fri, 08 May 2026 10:21:46 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16439&PID=155508#155508
