The time has come! We finally purchased a camper and we made the choice of going with the R-Pod! First we were looking at Sprinter vans and some other eco-trailers but the price point and design of the R-Pod sold us. Our local dealership wanted $19,995 for a brand new 2017 Hood River 179 so we were thinking about going used. But I found a dealership in NorCal with crazy prices. Toy Hauler Liquidators ROCKS. They are an amazing company and ask for Oscar if you're looking to buy a new R-Pod. We were super skeptical about purchasing from a random dealer 930 miles away but bit the bullet. We made the decision 7/8 to purchase and the trailer will be arriving today 7/14!!! We are beyond excited.
We don't know much about the trailer at all but will be taking it on a short trip next week. Then to the Gorge at the end of the month. I love looking at all the modifications people have been doing and can't wait to get started on my own. So far we've bought: - WDH with Sway Bar - Briggs & Stratton P2200 Generator - Full trailer cover - Dome Tent - Tire covers and I think that's about it... Thanks for the add we are excited to be a part of the community. I will post pictures tonight once the trailer arrives!! - Walker

You might consider a fan/vent Max Air plastic cover. With one you could leave your vent open and not worry about a storm while you're away.

Thank you all! Last night was crazy when it arrived and taking it to the parking spot I rented.. I'll have pictures of it soon.
I will definitely look into the vent cover. Everyone's help is much appreciated!

Which model cover? The original, MaxxAir II, or Fanmate? |

Picking up my new 180 from Toyhaulers on Friday!! Yes, that place rocks! Well worth the drive from San Luis Opispo. They had over forty R-pods in stock and we had 6 180's to choose from. I also cant say enough good things about them, from knowledge to inventory.
