Classic cover for 20 foot R-Pod works fine and is easy to put on.

Others have ordered the largest cover from Classic Accessories for a 179, and have had to return it! Forest River "now" just recently sources all of their other Rpod Covers from Classic Accessories as well so all old Pod covers are now covered by that company as well as sold by Forest River.

Classic Accessories has not yet made a cover that will fit a 179, thus, Forest River still has their former cover still available for that Pod model only. Until Classic Accessories makes one to fit the 179 the Forest River one will be the only one that fits correctly.

We just installed the Classic cover for 20 foot R-Pod and it fits our 179 very well.

Just put cover on our R-Pod 179. The Classic cover for 20 foot trailers works well and is easy to put on.
I will try to post a pic.

sorry for the multiple posts below - can't find how to delete posts...:)

Thanks, J-Cat for sharing your experience. I have been wringing my hands trying to decide on a cover for my 179 given all the conflicting information about fit. Im rolling the dice based on your experience.

I think the delivery was 4 or 5 days.

The fulfillment says..."ships in 4 to 5 weeks" Did it really take that long?

We have a 2015 179 and after doing some research and getting conflicting information as to whether the 20 ft Classic Cover on Amazon would fit a 179 or not, I rolled the dice and ordered one. This was done recognizing that the roll up door on this cover would not be in the correct location for the 179 (this was not a deal breaker for us since we do not plan on accessing the pod when stored). The wife and I did a trial fit this weekend and for what its worth, the cover seemed to fit fine and the quality seemed good.]]> Tue, 07 Oct 2014 23:59:55 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5348&PID=52563#52563 Pod covers for the 179 : Originally posted by Nomad2010Well... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5348&PID=52252#52252 Author: kymooses

your 178 cover which you got on Amazon by Classic Accessories will not fit a 179 though, but yes there are great prices there on the cheaper covers for other sizes of Pods.

An option until then is to just cover over the roof with a tarp. I wouldn't do the whole thing to ensure air flow. Or leave it uncovered. 5 years and I've never used a cover (I did use a tarp over the top for a month, to keep it clean after I scrubbed it but before we left for a trip). Needs a good scrub in the spring but it has always come out fully white.]]> Fri, 26 Sep 2014 15:43:28 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5348&PID=52081#52081 Pod covers for the 179 : Originally posted by Nomad2010I... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5348&PID=52043#52043 Author: kymooses

Only Forest River sells one that will fit a 179 currently. I'm sure Classic Accessories will have one this time next year but for now it's only Forest River.

The Forest River cover is the best. Canvas, door opening and very sturdy.
