Hello everyone,

My wife and I purchased a new 2019 tenth anniversary edition rpod 190 about a month ago at the annual Minnesota camping and RV show. While there have been a few minor issues to deal with already, we are still very happy with our purchase and have our first trip planned in early April.

We saw our first rpod while on a trip to Colorado about 4 years ago. We were very intrigued by its sleek design and had been doing research on them ever since. We love the floor plan of the 190 - especially the full sized bathroom and shower.

I’ve already added solar panel capability and made a few other minor tweaks. I’ve also added a Fairway E2 weight distribution hitch to my 2009 Ford F-150 tow vehicle based on recommendations I read from this site. 

Happy to be an rpodder and looking forward to learning from and contributing to this forum.

Congrats, and this is the place to be if you have an R-Pod. I have learned and benefited more from this site in just a few weeks than any other user and maintenance site for cars, boats, etc. It really fills the gap between FR and dealership issues regarding repairs and maintenance.

Welcome, and congrats. I have totally enjoyed my pods. I've become an avid camper since getting one. I will book 3 or 4 day trips most every week between July and October.  One thing you should know is no matter what you buy, there will be fixes needed. Always fix things when it's a " I really should tighten that up someday" thought in your head. Waiting normally leads to bigger problems. Please share your experience and stories, good or bad. Thanks.
