Greetings,

Does anyone have any specs for the new Rpod 195?

All I have been told is that it has a Walk Around Queen bed and a bigger refrigerator/freezer.

It’s supposed to begin production next Spring.

But I don’t know the specs...

Will it be longer?
Will it be wider?
Will it have Dual Axles?

My wife and I are excited by what we know so far, but we would love to know more,

Chris in TN

No specs have been released as of right now, it's a concept trailer only.

This is what my wife and I have been looking for. Im 6'2" and hated my feet touching the walls. I can now hang my feet over the edge. Will have to take a good look at 195.

I can't wait to see it at the dealer.  Couches will probably get the first one(s).  If it fits the bill for us, we'll sell our 179, which I love and move into this one.  Otherwise, we'll just be content with our 179.

As I understand it, it will be heavier, but under 3500. I guess that means it's still a single axle. I'ts wider, the wheels won't have fenders. It appears the back side is possibly squared off, not rounded, to allow for overhead shelves.

Just on a site note, since it has a bigger fridge you do not battery option to run the fridge on 12 volt. You only have LP or shore power option.
If you want something done right, do it yourself!

I'm not sold on updating from my 178.  But if I did I am comparing the 195 and the No Bo 19.5.  The 2nd year No Bo seems a better fit for me, mainly because I have tow capability.  Sure there is a niche for the 195, and certainly want to see one when available.  The fridge 2 way is not an issue to me.

The 195 is 20 inches longer and 6 inches wider with a square back.
