Hi! We too are new to the Pod world!
Took it for the first time a few days ago. What an experience. First we downsized from a 24ft prowler and 1/2 ton to a Santa Fe. Had to find a small trailer to pull and found the R-Pod. Fell in love with it and bought the 171. Its an adjustment to be sure but fun trying to learn how to repack and re prioritize what to bring. First trip out...trailer came unhitched from our suv. Scared us pretty good but thankfully little damage done. Had problems with the fridge lighting on the propane but persistance paid off and got it working . Love the comfy queen bed and roomy dinette. We cook outside mostly so the small stove isn't a problem. Taking it out again this weekend. Hopefully with no more scary incidents. I have been enjoying reading all the tips and tricks and modifications people have done to their pods. Happy camping!!

I'm surprised they didn't respond immediately. I used their online form and had a reply within a few hours.

Great, Paige! Looking forward to meeting you all.
If you don't hear back from Kathy at Pioneer, give her a call! Sometimes they don't get to the emails with all that goes on. Send a note to g4royce on the forum when you get your reservation, she is acting as registrar. Thanks! Walt |

I emailed the campsite via their website on Monday,,,but have not heard back from them. We are going to incorporate the RoundUp with a trip out to Ohio to see a sick friend. Will let you know when I hear from the campsite.

Oh,,Zion and Bryce, my favorites! We were there last spring. We had no hope of getting a site in Zion, but just outside it in Sprindale is the Zion Camping and RV Resort. Reasonable rates and you just walked up to the road to get the bus into the park. Very convenient and you are camped right on the Virgin River with the Watchman Mt above you...wonderful memories!

I thought all the the newer (2012+) models came standard with the riser kit. You should be able to tell if you look under the unit on the axle by the tire.
