Hello from Colorado......not new to rving but this will be our first Rpod with the Hood River package we pick it up this Friday and can't wait. My TV is a 2013 Jeep wrangler Unlimited.
Hope to get to know some of you as I'm sure I'll have questions about the trailer. Also any Colorado people on the forum.....any rpod meet and greets? Hope everyone has an awesome week, Lance

Thanks Leo can't wait to get it to start making it our own. Seen someone on here did glass tile back spash around the kitchen sink....that will be one mod done for sure. The other I'm going to see about a larger sink in the kitchen. Can't do much tell the knee replacement heals up.

Welcome.  We were in your area in July, visiting Pike's Peak and Cheyenne Mtn.

There is somebody else on here from the
'Springs area.
We were in the area at the end of June. We love Colorado & plan to retire there in way too many years.
Enjoy your new Pod!

Doug did you get a clear day at Pikes Peak? What a view at 14,000. Did you make it to the zoo?

A better view than I got in '86, which was completely fogged in.  This time it was foggy at first but then opened up to show the top of the cloud deck just below us (with a few peeks at the view below).  A pretty cool view even if it wasn't cloud-free.  You can click on the pics in this post for a larger view:
 
Didn't get to the zoo.
