We are in Oregon, went to the coast for our first trip, was a lot of fun. Had a cpl of problems.
One of the valves feeding  the water heater went bad, looks like the rubber seal came out the back, and the sprayer leaks out of the back.  But we still love the little guy.
Any other Pod owners in the Portland area ?

Welcome!  Any problem scheduling the warranty work with your dealer?  Feel free to post a review of your dealer in the Dealer Reviews section.

Glad you had a good time on your first trip.  I'm sure there will be many more.

Thanks for sharing your news! We just got word our 176T arrived at the dealership and will be ready for us to pick up on Monday. Hope to get all the way back to Oregon some day--this time in the POD. It will be a long trip all the way from Florida but your part of the U.S. is mighty pretty!

 rikeps59, we are planning to be out on your coast after Labor Day, any sugestions for great spots to spend a couple of days? Sorry to hear about the small issues, hope that is the end of them.

Glad you can get out. We are still looking forward to that 1st trip, 6 inches of snow a couple of days ago and today there is freezing drizzle, so it won't be for a few weeks at least. I'm glad the glitches were few. I will be in Portland in October, not in the pod but on a hiking/kyaking trip.
