We recently purchased a used 179 that we planned to travel across Canada with next spring. Unfortunately, it was stolen before we could actually use it. We are looking at the 192 as a replacement - planning to just pull over for meals and for overnight so like that there is no slide and the layout looks great. However, we can't find one in Ontario to even look at - all dealers are sold out and would have to order. Is there anyone in Southern Ontario with a 192 that we could even have a chance to inspect? Thanks! Rob ------------- Rob |

Hello Rob, Welcome! I'm sorry that your RPod was stolen. Have the police found any leads to locating it? I agree that no slides is good as there is one less thing to go wrong. The 192 is nice except the kitchen area is quite small. I think I would like the 202, even though it does have the slide. It has the rear kitchen which is the one feature we like on the 179. There is a new model, the 201 which also does not have a slide-out. That might be a good alternative also. I just looked on FR's web site at floor plans. I was surprised that I did not see the 179 there listed. It looks like FR has dropped the 179 from the product line-up. ------------- StephenH Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7712 - ouR escaPOD mods Former RPod 179 Current Cherokee Grey Wolf 24 JS |

Hi Stephen: No leads yet... We also liked the rear kitchen on the 179. So quick and convenient when traveling, we thought. Hadn't seen or heard of the 201. Looked on website and only the floor plan is available - no actual photos. I may reach out to FR for details. Rob ------------- Rob |

That's deplorable. So sorry to hear about it! I've mused about ours getting stolen. How did it happen? ------------- -- Jim Virginia City, Nevada 2016 R-pod 180 2015 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X |
