I think the folks up in Elkhart better plan on making a bunch of those! |

Another one that I like is the Wolf Pup - 16FQ and 16PF. http://www.forestriverinc.com/brochures/2018/2018wolfpupbrochure.pdf http://www.forestriverinc.com/product-details.aspx?LineID=177&Image=5038&ShowParent=1 One negative is a somewhat small gray tank. However, that could be overcome with one of the "blue totes". It would be interesting to look at it and a No-Bo 19.5 side by side. |

We plan a trip to Cookeville, TN to see the 19.5, when I saw a plan for the 16.7 I thought the copied a 179 plan. The fridge is another item the wife likes. The NOBO incorporates a lot we on forum have been asking about. Door in the window, 4" rear bumper, Blu Tooth, 16" tires, enclosed belly, etc. If I'm going to trade now is probably the time.

Thanks. It is definitely worth checking out then. Some features I have read about don't really interest me such as the kayak carriers. The 16.7 looks like the 179 but has the crawl-over queen bed. The 19.5 has the bed that I would really like, but the kitchen area is a no-go. Swap the kitchen and bath areas in the 19.5, and that would be a real winner in my book, even if it had to be a wet bath.

Is the NoBo 4-season or are the tanks exposed like they are in the R-Pod line?

+1 - 19.5 is about 1000 pounds heavier, of course tongue weight is heavier and 2'8" longer. If I were to buy, I would go with a WDH, which I currently don't use. Price here in TN is 19.5K pre tax.

Weight could be a factor unless you have a larger TV. Noticed the weight on the 16.7 model is about 1000 pounds heavier than our 177. Price is a factor too, 25K - 28.5K plus tax depending on the options. . . . . I will remain a loyal 177 owner. But in its defense, it has a lot of neat features and am sure it will sell quite well.
