When I hooked up for my first outing of the season, I had no electric when I plugged in with power cord. What could be the problem? There was nothing wrong with the electric post.

Thanks,
K

Check all of the circuit breakers in the panel.

Either the breaker was flipped off at the electrical post or your breaker inside the pod was off or one or both of the 40 amp fuses are bad.

Hi Glue guy:

You seem to be on line...I am thinking about buying a used 2019 Rpod 191 and wondered if you heard any feedback on the model. Also, I see you pull with an F150 just like mine, do I need a Weight Dist. hitch?

Sorry, but I am not familiar with the RP191.

With an F150, you don't "need" a WDH, but it is generally a good idea. If you don't use a WDH, you will need to augment your rear suspension to reduce the sag caused by the weight of the trailer on the hitch. That can be something like air bags, sumo springs, or other spring enhancers. 

The WDH does the job and does not involve the truck, but stays with the trailer.

I have towed our Rpod a couple of times without the WDH, and it plays serious havoc with the headlights (headlights up in the trees). Not a good thing.
