BOUGHT: RPOD 179

twday66,  Just a thought.  You should check your local dealers for how much the destination and prep charges are.  These costs can add up to over $2,000.

ksteig,

I sent you a private message, but since the editor fools me occasionally I thought I'd duplicate the information here.

We're not that far from you, in southeast Minnesota. It would be fairly easy for us to visit during the week sometime soon, if that works for you. I work weekends, so Saturday and Sunday is pretty used up for me.

Have you found a unit yet?  We are located in Traverse City.  Here is a copy of the ad I am just writing.  Pictures will be available soon if you are interested.

Hey twday66, I just posted our 1 year old RPOD 179 today. Check out the pics and details on my web site pictures at:

or email Charlie ( Lexington, KY ) at uglygs@yahoo.com

Your situation sounds like ours exactly. Just 2 of us, needing comfort and convenience for 2. I can talk with you also about a mod that I have and did not include in the pics. Instead of "uncomfortable" dining booth seats, I have lightweight "bucket seats" from a hot rod that I have. They fit on the pedestals where the slideout rests when in. They are great. Also have made the bed very comfortable now too, as well as the TV viewing.
Unfortunately I need to take my BMW motorcycle along and loading it into the pickup is not an option ( knee replacement, etc.)Thus I need a toy hauler. Hope I can help you even if you buy that new one...I may be able to beat that deal...but it sounds good for a new one, couldn't blame you?

Originally posted by Plantguy I enjoyed your comments. I am looking for a tilt TV holder. Will you send me the name/ specs on the one you bought?  Thanks, Ken

I got this tilt/adjuster thru Amazon for @ $13.00. It sandwiches between the RPOD179 TV and the original swing out bracket. No need to re-attach anything to the flimsy walls of the RPOD. I removed the TV from it's bracket and mounted this simple bracket to the back of the TV and then mounted the bracket to the original swingout arm of the RPOD. I think I had to make a paper template and drill a couple of holes in the bracket (very simple) to make this work. It tilts down @ 15 degrees and is adjustable. Works great with minimal work.
