I also love my rpod very much
and have used it extensively but this December I will be trading it in for a 5th
wheel trailer as I am ready to go full-time RVing. As a retired person I now go
camping in my rpod 2-weeks every month, and have been doing such since
purchasing my rpod in January of 2010. It has been a great experience for me.
I retired from the U.S. Army
where I frequently slept on the ground in pup tents, or just with a poncho over
me, so when I started camping as a civilian I did so in a van, which was a step
up, and then later got a popup tent trailer, which was even nicer than a van.
From there I purchased the rpod which is luxury compared to sleeping on the
ground. But I’m now ready to get a bigger house-on-wheels in the form of a 5th
wheel.
I’m waiting until December berceuse
I’ll also need to purchase a new tow vehicle and can get a better deal at the
end of the year. The housing market has soured me on owning a home so I plan to
sell my house, downsize my household goods; pick 6 places every year that I’d
like to visit and spend two months at each place starting in 2013.
I’ve also enjoyed this rpod forum
and have learned a lot from reading all of the posts here. I have absolutely no
regrets buying and rpod and have made some great memories camping in it. I will also try to stick with Forrest River, when I buy my 5th wheel, because I like the way they put together their trailers and they have given me some great customer service as well. P.S. The RV dealerships that I have been to told me that I can get at least half the purchase price of my rpod in a trade-in but even more if I sell it outright. I think I'll just trade it in.
