I like the RDome.  I'm dissapointed in its shortcomings.  I'm jealous my in-laws 20 year old pop-up has a built-in awning storage bag.  I have axle risers on my 177 so I have to climb into my truck bed in order to reach the rail.  Granted the curve in the rail makes it difficult to design a storage pouch.  It seems like there should be a way to sew a flap or bag to the underside and create a storage pouch for it.  Has anyone modded their RDome and are able to leave it mounted?

Welcome.  Nobody has yet, that I know of.  I miss the in-place storage, too.

Rats.  I was afraid of that.  Nice place you have around here.  Thanks!

I store ours under the rear couch.  Fits very nicely.

We just put ours back in the bag, slide under the trailer. Also, we are able to just push ours through when mounting it.. no climbing or ladders or truck beds.. try spraying a little graphite lube in the track..
