   Just picked up the 179HRE/Baja. Had a nice Wildcat F24 5th wheel but it limited where I can go fishing and talked to several Rpod owners. Nothing negative, other than size, so figured it would serve my purposes.

Taking my time setting it up, figuring what all I really need and what I carried in excess before. So far impressed with the actual storage space, except bathroom.

Anybody change to 35 pound LP tank? How long, normal use for 1 person, temp's in the low 40's at night, do the 20 pounders last? 

Also bringing 4 golf cart batteries over, ordered the battery box yesterday. Have a 270 watt solar panel to hook directly to batteries and a 2200 max generator for back up if needed.

Dealer said nothing about the R Dome, anybody know where to get one that fits the 179? Price range?

Suggestions/recommendations readily accepted.

Phil
