I have driven from here to Sacramento.. it's three hard days, with no camper. Would be 6-7 with. Thankfully, when we go out there to camp, we fly, and just use my parent's Class C, or rent from one of the MWRs out there and tow with our Excursion that lives out there.]]> Wed, 24 Feb 2016 10:39:42 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7474&PID=70266#70266 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7474&PID=70260#70260 Author: jato

To make it to the west coast, would take us 4 days.  Have never gone that far as we would use over half our vacation time traveling just to get there and back.  May be different in a few years when I retire and get more than 2 weeks vacation.]]> Tue, 23 Feb 2016 23:15:31 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7474&PID=70260#70260 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7474&PID=70259#70259 Author: StephenH

Yep the antennae is there just not seen in the photo. I went over it with a fine tooth comb on Monday when I got it home. We live about 45 miles from Dallas, Oregon where these are assembled. I bought the extended warranty (a rarity for me) so it will be interesting to see how that works out. These trailers are all over the road around here on the West Coast not a novelty like they are back East. Were pretty excited after draggin a teardrop for many years. My only quandary is where to take it first.....Utah National parks, Crater Lake, Yellowstone, Oregon coast, Sawtooth National Forest.....ah it is good to live in "the west".... ]]> Tue, 23 Feb 2016 22:31:07 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7474&PID=70255#70255 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7474&PID=70249#70249 Author: StephenH

I don't see a TV antenna on top. Did yours not come with one or is it just the picture?

It looks nice. I'm sure you will be putting your own custom touches on it.

I hope you enjoy your 179. You have the latest features. Although mine is a 2016, it is lacking the undermount sink and the jack foot. I was told ours was 400 units too early to get those. However, I have added a foot and will soon change out the plastic sink for a top mount stainless steel sink. I will also changing out the faucet. I'll add information and pictures when that is done.

   Just drove in from the dealership which is 20ish miles from the factory. 2016/179 that we are pretty excited about. After running a teardrop all over the PNW for the last 5 yrs it will be nice to be a "glamper".... ]]> Mon, 22 Feb 2016 18:32:12 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7474&PID=70176#70176
