What was deleted and where?  I did not delete anything by you and none of the other mods said anything to me about deleting a post by you.  I will double-check with them.
 
The only post I have deleted in the last 3 months was a recent post I made to a user who posted a blank entry in the Dealer Review forum.  I gave them instructions on how to edit their own post, and once they did I deleted my post.

The winter weather is getting to everyone.  (At least, I know it is for me).   We need less winter and more camping.   Good thoughts out to everyone.  Think warm.  Ouch

I am just about to write a check and buy the RP-176 model. I am very excited as my wife and I are new to camping and this will be our firts camper. As I was researching what camper I wanted I did come across the MPG and almost bought that but the price was way out of my range. Beside I heard some things I did not like. I have a 2008 Ford Explorer and want to know if this vehicle is big enought to pull the R-176?

SmileWelcome aboard, podpeople!!!  You'll find a lot of company here - owning a Pod.  Most of us liked 'em enough to plunk down 5 digits for one.  Many others are thinking about it.  Others still, just like to join in the conversation.
 
I don't know the Ford product line very well, so I really can't answer you question.  You might pass along the engine size, towing capacity (if known) and any other info you can think of.  While none of us can give you a positive, definative answer ( we just offer opinions/advise), I'm sure you'll get a few responses.
 
Good luck with your purchase.

Welcome aboard!  If you have the owners manual it will be listed in it.  Or, call a dealer and ask them.

Welcome pod people!  This is our first travel trailer too.  Previously we were tent campers and even that has been a long time ago.  We love our 171.

My Ford Explorer is a 6 cylinder. I think the rating is 3000 lbs but I will look at the manual to make sure. My wife and I are getting this as an activuty venue due to most recent empty nest. We are very excited and are buying ours through RV Nation even though we live in Mn. I find that they have the best deals and very friendly.
