I understand that...Service wise I should be fine using any forest river dealer/service dept.
I just couldn't buy locally...but Couch's RV Nation took care of me so it all works out great.
I wasn't big on travelling to Ohio and the freezing cold (I don't care how hot it gets here...snow and cold are way worse!!) but we wanted this camper asap.

I just bought an R pod 171 from Country Campers too!  We had to buy a new car because our old car had 130000 miles.  We have to have 1000 miles on our new car before we can tow the camper so I will be driving a lot. We plan on picking it up on March 28th.  Smile  Linda

Hi Dixie
Ted and I bought our R-Poda from Country Campers as well.  Yizit and I live in Milwaukee area.  When we get R-Poda home I am calling yizit to come over.  If you want to come over too my phone is 414-525-0386 and we live in Greendale.  We are planning on picking her up on 3/28 and take her for a 1 night overnight if the weather is ok.  Linda and Ted

Will the generator run the air conditioner.  We live in Florida and nights can be very hot.
We are considering the Honda 2000.
 
Thanks

Yeah the 2000 will, but we may have to turn off the AC to use the microwave.

Capringl,
 
congrats on your 172 ! I am very interested in finding more about rpods and particularly, the 172 model.
 
How did it tow ? I assume you towed it from Ohio to Arizona ? What was your gas mileage ?

The 172 is going to be great for us.  The bunks are what sold us on that model.
