We purchased our 180 and headed out from Louisiana to Colorado, the trailer tows beautifully behind a Tundra. We have a few minor "issues" to sort out when we get home.

The 180 is the perfect couples "empty nesters" trailer, my wife loves the extra room in the kitchen and bathroom .

Our previous trailer was a Livin Lite toy hauler 6x15 model, that trailer is built to last forever and I will miss the quality, but we rarely hauled anything in it and a true camper such as a Pod works perfect.

I compared the quality and features of the Pod's competitors such as the Jayco Hummingbird, Starcraft Satellite and Winnebago Minnie Drop and the Pod was the winner.

Jealous, we won't get out to Colorado, RMNP, until September, but it will be worth the wait, watching and hearing bugling elk and all that goes with it.    Enjoy your 180, we have thoroughly enjoyed our 177 since March 2011,

DavidB,
Congrats on the new 180 from one 180 owner to another!
I also love mine and just did a 26 day trip from the west coast to DC and back. Thanks for the comparison info. I'm glad I went with the pod, and never really checked the others out to well. I did a bunch of mods to mine mostly because it's fun, Check them out at Topic: All my 180 mods, John&Sue
