   We just got our 2016 RP 179 a month ago. We're towing it with a Nissan Frontier V6 pickup, which is supposed to be able to tow up to 6000 lbs.  We're finding the towing *okay*, but just okay.  I definitely wouldn't want to be towing anything much heavier, and I can foresee that the new RPod might motivate us to trade our truck up to something a bit beefier at some point.

	Welcome. You'll know it is there when you stop at the gas pump after a few hours of towing.

	Picked up our 2016 RP182G and brought it home. Almost like there's nothing back there behind the '04 Ford Explorer (V8)...until I look in the rear view or head up a steep hill.
