Well we pick up our new 176 today. He haven't trailer camped in 20 years, back when we had a Coleman Popup. Now its just the two of us and the dog. Looking forward to lots of evenings around the camp fire and making clever modifications like so many listed here.  Tri-Pod

Welcome!  We moved from a Coleman popup to the 'pod, too.  I wanted to keep about the same towing length and didn't mind getting a little less space inside - we don't stay inside much.

Welcome and enjoy!  We're moving up from the ground to our 171.  Our intermediate was a 5x8 utility trailer always packed and ready to go camping in the barn we have for a garage.  Never used it to sleep in though...

Welcome!!  I went from the ground, to a tent, to a pop up, to a 38' motor home...then to the R-Pod!  The pop up was a Coleman too.  Your gonna like it here!

Hi Tri-pod,
Love your name!
We went from a tent into the Gastropod with our dog, Sally.  It seems very luxurious to us.
Wishing you many years of enjoyment and happy travels.
