Congrats Slogger;
They did an extensive walk through with me, but after I got home it was like , what does the switch on the water heater do ??  Make sure you get owners manual on all appliances, I am missing the hot water heater manual, also the t.v. remote, seems as if they have a habit of walkling away, I can't scan t.v. channels without it. I spent first day off operating systems and reading the forums here, they were great help, Happy Poddin

Flip every switch on battery then again plugged in to AC (no A/C, microwave, electric water heater element and in some cases no TV when on battery power), put some water in the fresh water tank to try the pump, make sure they adjust the length of the breakaway cable after it is hooked up to your vehicle. It should be longer than the chains but no so long it drags on the ground.

Thanks Doug     ...exactly the type of info Imam looking for.

5 days left and then we head down to pick up our R-Pod. We're getting a 2012 model 177' by the way.

Last time we bought second-hand. The previous owner gave us a nice overview but we still had to learn a lot on our own.

I am told that we are going to get and in-depth orientation to the R-Pod. We plan on taking good notes and possibly even shooting some video.

Just wondering if any current owners out there in Podsville have any suggestions on what to ask or what to pay special attention to.

Thanks in advance   ...
