How do I post a pic of my rig? Can’t figure it out. The tree symbol only takes me to an option for a web site.

Our 2016 Ram Rebel and 2015 RP179. Pleased with this combo. 10,150 lb towing capacity, but the payload is so low, there would be no legal way to tow much over 6000. I think many, many combos end up in that situation with the state of modern crew cabs.

We are fortunate in having a variety of tow vehicles to choose from depending on the situation:
2016FordTransit250LWBEX by Mel Lester Jr., on Flickr For heavy duty, we can use our trusty 2003 Dodge W2500 4x4 or the 2016 Ford Transit Camper Van. I towed our 180 Hood River edition home from the dealer this past Saturday (about 100 miles away) and got 19 MPG (diesel) on the way to the dealership (freeway 65-70 MPH) and 15 MPG on back roads going home (55-60 MPH). The Dodge pulled the rpod like it wasn't there. If off road activity is anticipated, any one of our Jeeps should be able to get the rpod to the trailhead. Later this month, we will take the rpod to the Southwest for a month behind the Wife's Cherokee.
Or for those really retro occasions, my 1976 Dodge W100 Powerwagon! |

Explorer pulls this Rpod very easily. Lots of mountain passes here in Idaho. Hardly knew the 179 was behind us most of the time, but if I were shopping for a different TV, it would be something with a truck bed. This rig has the HP required, and thankfully never hits 3k on the hills. 13.5 MPG average in the mountains.

This year we were camped near a rig that was much larger than a pod and pulled with an Explorer. I wanted to ask how it plled. but never got the chance. Looks like a great rig.
