I know people do it, however, for the life of me I can't see (4) people and a dog comfortable in any of the R-Pods. Take a trip to the dealer, find the larger R-Pod they have and take you, the wife and the two kids into the camper and close the door. Imagine that, plus a dog, for those nights/days that it rains for hours.

Nascar has an extrmely valid test method and thought process on this one. We're in a 181g and I think it's crowded if my wife and I are in there and then someone comes in for a tour. It would be my personal opinion that you could be more comfortable in a larger camper if you're able to go that route. But then again if you're a close family and would spend a lot of your time outdoors barring the weather then a Pod could suit you well. Again I think your best option might be for all of you to hang out in one for about 10 minutes and try to move around and see how that works out for you. I

Check out the other forum and ask your same set of questions. There are several families active there that can provide some insight as they have similar demographics.
If you grew up in a tent with at least one other youngster, you should be able to handle living in a pod. The r-dome adds a lot of living space and is remarkably weather tight. The units with a slide out and a set of bunks would seem to be ideal for a family of your size. Your TV should be good for any number of campers. Enjoy the search for your ideal small camper! |

I have a USB TV tuner for my Laptop. A little bigger than a thumb drive with a cable connection on one end.

There is also the possibility of the kids using a tent outside just so they can have their own adventure. We have done this with our older children and worked out great. And I still get to do alcooking filling anyway.

My family of 4, my wife and I and our 2 girls, Love our 172T. The pop out makes the camper feel ginormous when the weather is nice, or close it up when its not so nice. We all get along just fine and love our pod!
