We average 13.5 coming out of Vermont, as soon as we get down to the Massachusetts border we get 14.5-15.6 Once we get down near NJ we get 15-5-17 it really depends on the wind. We average 60-65 driving speed]]> Mon, 06 Feb 2017 08:07:58 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=9287&PID=87589#87589 Future RPod 171 owner, just saying hi. : Thanks that makes me feel more... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=9287&PID=87585#87585 Author: Robodad

Welcome to the group! Used to own a 171 and loved it. Upgraded to a 179 and still tow in with our Grand Caravan. We tow up and down the east coast. We have plenty of power and get pretty good mileage while towing.]]> Mon, 06 Feb 2017 07:17:41 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=9287&PID=87576#87576 Future RPod 171 owner, just saying hi. : Hi everyone, I am in the process... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=9287&PID=87571#87571 Author: Robodad

Hi everyone,

I am in the process of getting a new 171 and am excited for it, but I was wondering if some people could chime in and offer me some advice.

I am not new to camping, and am currently in the process of selling my Scamp camper. I have used a 2008 Nissan Quest to tow it now for 8 years and have had no problems. What can I expect in performance and handling characteristics going from a Scamp to a 171 Pod. Everything is well within specs for towing the 171 but I hear different opinions and wanted if any of the people on the forum who tow with a minivan regularly can give me some advice and their experiences, and what I can expect or if I am making a mistake buying the Rpod. Ying Yang

Thanks in advance.

Rob
