Congrats Bob! Great minds think alike!
Would you mind parking yours in Sanibel in February so I don't have to tow ours down? I'll leave you the keys to ours up here in New Jersey! Might be a good break for you to get away from that relentless Florida winter!  We are excited about bringing the pod home tomorrow. Hoping to get a few days of rookie podding in before winter sets in! fred

Fred, your listing is almost identical to what is on the order my dealer sent to FR. Other than my interior color being Saddle, the only difference is that my order details what are in the Interior Luxury and Exterior Luxury packages.
It looks like we are both receiving all the options except for the bike carrier. My 178 is not due to arrive at my Tampa dealer until November 15. Bob |

Yeah Bob, it is a little confusing and seems to vary a bit from dealer to dealer. That PDF invoice was something I found on the web while trying to compare with what we bought. The unit we pick up tomorrow lists the following:
2014 R-Pod 178 Equipment: Carbon Monoxide Detector Crown Package: -Jensen "Bluetooth" AM/FM/CD/DVD Stereo w/Wire Remote Control -Two Interior Speakers -Two Exterior Speakers -Keyless Entry Door Lock -Residential Goose Neck Faucet w/Pull Out Sprayer -Pleated Shades Exterior Luxury Package Interior Luxury Package Java 13,500 BTU Air Conditioner 19" LCD Flat Screen TV Axle Riser Convection Microwave Oven R-Dome Awning w/Screen Room I'll let you know when we get it home what the gelcoat is! fred |

I am looking at the Purchase order/Invoice for the 2014 178 I have on order that my dealer emailed to me. On yours, the 4000 gel coating is shown under the "Reserve Item" with no other items. On mine, the same option item is "Crown Package." It is my understanding that the 4000 coating is included with the Crown Package for all models in 2014. Rather confusing. Bob |

Hi, I saw your information on the gel-coating on the
pods. I wanted to share what I was told
this Monday at the Pomona ca. rv show and see if anyone could share more
information. The sales rep from RV SPA OF UPLAND CALIFORNIA said the 2014
r-pods have the limulus 4000 gel coating and the new 2014 models (with the
royal crown options) only have a 1000 gel coating. He said the FR rep told him that is how they
saved money to add the new features on the crown package. The new trailer will look duller up close. I did a little research and saw were the sides of the r-pods
are 4000 and the roofs are 1000. But I
did not see where any changes were made to the coating with the new royal crown
options for 2014. I was surprised to see
the roofs were 1000 since the roof on the pod is also the front and back side. I was going to call FR but decided to give you all a first
crack at this question. I started
reading this sight a few weeks ago and it has been a big help on learning about
the pods. I did order a 177 crown
package with the r-dome. The wife and I
want to thank you all for the great information. |

If you get the anchor, be sure to get the storm jib.... comes in handy in a blow. |

Carpinteria High reunions are becoming multi-year, and my brother's is next year. I may fly out for that. I can't bring the pod but may come and look around a little. It would be fun I think. We will see.
