Hi Folks,
I'm looking at retiring in an R-Pod in the not too distant future. I've been doing my due diligence, looking at and researching a lot of different floor plans and models of small TTs, and keep coming back to the R-Pods. Vaccilating between the 179 and 180.
Anyway, one of the things I absolutely need is reliability and straightforward ease of use. I can take care of myself, and read a manual (or an owner's forum :-)) and do small repairs and such, but I'm counting on everything working. I can't be climbing under a Pod to make sure the black tank is properly attached.
I'll be traveling alone except for a few critters. Some time will be spent in campgrounds, but I'll be boondocking a lot as well.
So I've gotten some wonderful ideas and tips from reading this forum, but I'm getting a little concerned about a Pod holding up under constant use, and some of the fairly complicated repairs they seem to need. I can't do those, which will mean having to pay to have them done.
Is an R-Pod for me, or am I biting off more than I can chew? I've never owned a camper before. This seems right in terms of price and size and having all the amenities I need.
Thanks, Everyone! I'm enjoying seeing the pictures and all, especially the critters and cute mods.
