Welcome.  I'm sure you will enjoy your Pod as much as the rest of us have.

Happy Podding

You will get along great with Terry, one of the mods here.  He's a big off-roading fan.

Finally picked the unit up yesterday and brought it home. Pulled easier than I thought in these CA hills; even with the water tank filled to 3/4. Son was so excited that he slept in the pod overnight :) Only three issues so far that I've noticed -which is most likely user error.-

1. Dinette doesn't seem to set right when converting to queen bed. Tabs do not line up properly and the table top seems too long but again probably my error in using it.

2. Rear garage left speaker does not work. Most likely a bad connection somewhere.

3. The garage basket holder plate was put upside down. No big though, I'll just flip it right side up when I have the time and the Dewalt is fully charged.

Everything else seems to be working just fine :) Here's a picture of our 182g HR!

Welcome and happy podding!  We have a 182G and love it.  We tow it with an Outlander, so you should have no problems with your FJ.

We also have a 182G and love it. I know you will find it just as fun as we have!
On the issue of the speaker not working, you might have to pull out the Jensen CD/DVD player and check the connections. Ours had the video out connected to the video in, so we had no picture when using the DVD player. There is a good chance they hooked it up wrong at the factory, or one of the wires is not connected at all. Easy fix if that's the case.
Enjoy the Pod!

I like the look of that combo.  What are you referring to as the 'garage basket holder plate'?
