I looked at them but the price for the model I would need to get for our Atwood hitch would be the 2178-A which is listed for $225 on the site. It fits the Atwood Yoke Latch coupler on our 2016 RP179 (the middle picture on the 2178-A product page) where the 2178 will not according to the product pictures and description.
I have been using a Master Combo Pack 3794DAT. It might not be the best lock, but so far, it has been adequate. My trailer is parked in our driveway along a fairly busy street. My neighbors know our vehicle and do keep an eye on things while we are away. If it were in a lot somewhere, I would certainly think the Proven Locks setup worthwhile. |

I'm still sticking with the best. A camper was stolen where I live and they are still looking for it. I plan to do some traveling. Unfortunately we live in an uncertain world.
and Glue Guy? I don't think that lock is coming off with a crowbar! Maybe a howitzer! |

Check the You Tube videos on hitch locks. Very interesting.

[QUOTE=lostagain]That's what I was kind of thinking, the bigger risk is someone breaking in and
And if someone breaks into our Pod, they'd be really disappointed. There's no micro, no TV or other electronics, really nothing much of value. The worst part would be repairing the break in damage. Same here, we special ordered our 177 back in January 2011 to have NO micro/convection oven, NO entertainment system, and NO A/C. We are camping and the pod for us is just a great place to get in and sleep after being outside all day, hiking, biking, or a myriad of other things to do outside. The thieves would probably trash the pod inside if they weren't able to steal anything of value for quick sale. |

Ok, ok, I confess: We have a repurposed Oster toaster oven where the micro would go. The timer switch broke and I was too cheap to throw it away. I put a little toggle switch in place of the timer. It works fine. We got a new one for the kitchen at Costco for $49.99 and I couldn't bear to throw away a perfectly good toaster oven. Now, if we're some where where there is ac power, we can cook a pizza if we want without taking out the Coleman collapsable oven to put on the stove top. Livin' the life or Riley.

Does anyone know anything about the Master Lock trailer coupler lock available on Amazon for about 30 bucks? It looks pretty good at first blush.
