Neat job, Soda. I would consider that! We're looking at a Kodiak 173 Which is about 21' long. It may take a little customization to satisfy the boss gal, but at least it would be towable w/the little v/8 Tundra.

Just wondering. Would that be considered a 279?

Well, TNT, a bunk would help with the grandkid problem, but exacerbate the wife's elbow room complaints. After 49.75 years of marriage, I know better than to go there! I don't think the Pod is gonna be part of any compromise. At that, I guess I can't complain too much. We've got a lot of great use out of our little pod. I checked the notebook the other day, and we've gone on 50 plus two to seven day camping trips in the Pod--interestingly enough every one within our state of Washington.

We love our little pod, and the big 'ol Airstream.. But when we really get to our "last" TT, it's going to be a CampLite. They have a bunkhouse at 21 and 28 feet..We still owe a little bit on the pod.. My guess is, when we pay it off..

  I know how you feel, I was content with our r-pod 171 but my wife was wanting more room. We looked at many campers but I stood firm that we were not getting another tow vehicle. We ended up with the Vibe 6503 and we are both happy and have only $12,100 in to it. It was well within our budget but I could of lived with the r-pod the low price is what changed my mind.
