Hi All,

Just picked up our 2009 R151 a few weeks ago. Spent the last 6 days in it. Best trip ever!

PS: If MTBMITCH is still watching these forum's, I think I'm the new owner of your R-Pod.

Very rare floor plan, not many of the 15 series were built.. I know many owners who are watching for one in good shape.. Grat's on finding one.

EDIT: I let him know.. he hasn't logged in here in a couple years, but he is active on the Lance owners forum.. As am I.

Thanks. Mechanically it's in really good shape, fridge, pump, WH, furnace all working great. Interior is about what you'd expect for it's age. Lot's of screw holes, nicks and dings. Where fixing those now. Will post to mods when it finished.

This was the first R-Pod we ever saw back in November 2010 when we were camping in Fort Wilkens State Park, Copper Harbor, Michigan.  The owner was pulling it with her Subaru outback and gave my wife a tour, I was on my bicycle at the time riding around.  She was so excited about it and told me let's go so you can see it as well.  The owner wasn't home at the time but we did look at it from the outside and peeked inside, yes, pretty neat I thought!  Unfortunately she got up early, like us, and left by 7:15 am so I didn't get a tour but once we got home, got on the FR website and checked out the various models, by this time I was hooked and by January we special ordered our 177.  Here we are almost 9 years later, same 2 12v. Interstate batteries, quite a few mods done, but still the same 177, we thoroughly enjoy it and hope to have it for a long long time.  Congratulations on your purchase!

Hi there. Sounds like your in the valley. I'm a 5B native myself (living in Boise). You might see me rolling though town some time on my way to the sawtooths :-)
