I had a 179 rpod that was stolen and I was without one till 2023, and got me a 180 and beast mode which I am super happy with. The Beast Mode is much heavier but I am happy with as it, things in storage do not end up on the floor broken as usual, yes the suspension could be lighter maybe. There needs to be a half way compromise on this issue, I know most of you go camping in the summer at the " hook up campground " but some of us that love the outdoors do not want to be hooked up. Anyways a mix suspension I think it is due and although the BM is heavy while driving in heavy wind, rough roads it has helped me a bit. SO moving on from there, this is for Forest River the Rpod makers.... can you please make a manual to show things like the water pump filter is and how to unscrew it and clean the filter when no water comes out, also, the electric jack tongue, why is the positive cable black ? DO you know what sort of a headache you gave me ??? WTF you guys ? Also, can you at least insulate the fresh water tank ? maybe just add a heating pad and add it to your price ? Listen Rpod people I love you guys, this is my second one ! And I will buy a third one if I need to. I think you guys are the best ! Shoots, can I work with you guys ? in the design dept ? I have amazing ideas that will make your Rpod not that much more expensive nor heavy nor, fancy dumb looking ! But for crying our loud you guys need a little help with the small details... Like screws I keep finding and I have no idea where they come from... While on the topic of making things better, for all the slide out models, can you please make a tool, instructions, a second motor you can turn on etc in case that slide out fails ? A simple tool will do ! Guys it would take so little to blow your competition out of the water it is not even funny ! Again I love you guys and I promise the next camper if I ever need another one will be another Rpod 100% a promise ! But someone explain to me why on earth a red cable is black on the Rpod electric tongue ? It is all about the details it is all about the attention to details and while NOT on the hook up campground it is all about knowing what to do if something goes wrong... Oh yeah I know DVD"s might be a thing of the past but man, it would be so great to still have those iin the tv !!!!! LOL Anyways I had to vent, I love you guys I am and Rpoder for life but DETAILS !!! Love my 180 Beast Mode ! It feels so much safer on the road at least to me... someone has opinions about these points, hit me up ! And if someone knows how to retract the slider on a 180 in case some day it goes bad hit me up too ! Happy camping !!! And cheers to all ! EXCUSE MY TYPOS   Edited by js555 - 18 Oct 2025 at 12:52pm |
