   We always dry camp so here are some mods to save weight and provide more room along with energy sources. Table alone saved 22 pounds. Have shaved 112 pounds off the 151 so far. Also the false back walls take up 3 inches of depth, ditched those also. Giant pantry area where the microwave was. Door keep falling off storage area near door so axed it(7.5 pounds) and removed the false back to make enough room for all the bedding, drinking water and books.

	Shelf projects. Used pine and dowells from Lowes. Cabot Wood Gingersnap Stain and Seal that matched kinda close. Screwed into corner cabinet studs (used small drill bit to check location).

	I drive down a lot of dirt roads and suggest that you might replace the screws that attach the hinges to larger doors with some bigger screws. The stock stuff is might be ok for smooth pavement but falls out on washboard or rough roads.

	We just got back from Alaska - don't forget blackout material for the windows, at least the ones next to the bed. It still stays pretty light up there! I used thin blue foam insulating sheets and cut them to fit the windows. Worked great. Have a wonderful trip! Our Pod did GREAT!!
