That's my method of operation too.
Kinda hard to push around in dirt/gravel but much more stable.

Welcome to the forum. The R Pod doesn't come with a lug wrench. I think what you found was the stabilizing jack wrench. I would check to see if your tow vechicles jack is compatible before carrying two. Also make sure you have a lug wrench that fits. Have fun on your trip.

We have a 2014 R-Pod 178, and are planning a long road trip starting next week.
Just in case, do the R-Pods have a jack for changing the tire? I can't find one. I did find the wimpy lug wrench, which I doubt would be strong enough to loosen the lugs.

Thanks,
Elenaron
