I have not seen anybody else towing with a Murano. I was wondering how the Murano will do towing the r pod.. The owners manual states
I can tow 3500 Lbs. |

Vehicles with a 3500 pound limit will work - but many here have moved up to larger TVs afterwards. In our case we pulled a much heavier popup with our minivan without any problems, but once we moved to the pod the wind resistance on highway hauls became a much bigger factor - as everyone else here will agree. After a summer of hauling our pod along the entire East Coast from Maine to Florida on major highways I knew I needed something more powerful. If you will mostly do back roads and few hills you'll be fine.

Picked up our r pod in Shoemakersville Pa. on Monday Pulled it 270 miles over the mountains to Pittsburgh. Our Murano pulled it with no problem . But as so many people have stated I got exactly 10 MPG. We have it home and after some mods we will be looking forward to using it all summer.

Welcome to the world of R-podding.
We live 20 miles north of Pittsburgh. We believe we are the only R-Pod owners from Pittsburgh area, now there are two of us!! Yah! We have a 2011 181G and truly do love it. Especially the Garage part. We bought it new from an R-pod dealer in Transfer, PA (near Hermitage) We bought a new tow vehicle last November a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee and we are looking forward to towing our Pod somewhere soon. Maybe we can get together sometime and compare our Pods and mods! Bob and Sylvia |

Old Dingo. We live in Upper St Clair. Before I retired I worked in Freedom. (Cranberry). Where do you live. Is there any nice campgrounds up that way . We want to take a few short trips in May / June just to get the feel of camping in our R Pod.
