We are looking at trading in our 171 for a new 179.
Just wondering how much room there is in the pod when the slide is not open. For example can you use the bathroom easily if the slide is not open?

Thanks,

Cherie & Terry

So happy traveling with our

Hi there   I traded up from a 2010 R-171 to a 2015 R -179.  The bathroom is completely available when the slide is in.  The Table legs fold down and the table is strapped to the top of the seat in the slideout when traveling.  Access to the bed is no problem.  I think everyone who owns a R-179 finds it's a very practical floor plan.  I spent about 50 nights in mine last year and am looking forward to unpacking it for the season this year.   The slideout makes a world of difference in comfort and living space.  I took a 1200 mile trip in northern Mn. and Wis. over rough secondary roads with no problems what so ever.  I did take delivery with the factory lift kit installed.  I highly recommend having it installed. safe   traveling

Thank you so much for you quick reply. I thought if would be fine, but through my research I have yet to see what it is like on the inside with the slide in.

Thanks again. I think we will be going ahead with our change soon.
