Welcome. This weekend do a test trial in "camp driveway". You'll quickly figure out the big stuff you need to add (or remove). Keep your phone or a notepad handy to make a list of stuff you need to buy - and keep that notepad for future trips because there's always something that needs refilling.

See the link in my signature for lots of info.]]> Thu, 10 Sep 2015 07:47:14 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6936&PID=65778#65778 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6936&PID=65760#65760 Author: Podster

Hi,

It's most definitely my first trailer. Feeling a little overwhelmed. Already watched a couple of long video on you tube. Seems like a lot to get your arms around.]]> Wed, 09 Sep 2015 15:04:46 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6936&PID=65759#65759 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6936&PID=65732#65732 Author: Podster

Congratulations on your new POD! You don't mention if this is your first camp trailer so I would say get a cheapo Harbor Freight special 1/2" drive torque wrench and a socket for the wheel lugs and keep it with you. Make it a habit to check the torque before each trip and periodically along the way. Have Fun! ]]> Tue, 08 Sep 2015 22:12:51 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6936&PID=65732#65732 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6936&PID=65731#65731 Author: Leo B

Hi,

I just purchased a slightly used(looks totally new) 2014 176 RPOD. Picking it up next weekend and jumping right into a weekend away. Any suggestions on must have's, tips etc... would be greatly appreciated. I'm sure the dealer will go over the basics but I need a good overview on all things rpod.

Thanks for your help.]]> Tue, 08 Sep 2015 21:49:47 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6936&PID=65728#65728
