My New Rig...

[rimshot]

Okay, finally read the rules. I'll post a few more and just wait patiently. Here's the new rig. I'm hoping to take her out in the next few weeks. Does anybody else have an R-pod on here? I'm thinkin I'm going to enjoy this one....Bill

Re: My New Rig...

Well, it has definitely been a few weeks. Did you get out with the new toy?

Nice R-pod. I saw my first one of those in Yellowstone 2 years ago. Nice rig. I camp in a smaller Teardrop that I built myself.

So where have you taken the new trailer?

Re: My New Rig...



While not an rPod, I have a 14ft. Family obligations have only allowed one trip this spring. It was a great weekend trip to the Hocking Hills area of Ohio.

I love little travel trailers.

Re: My New Rig...

That's a cute one Actad. I've looked at the small trailers and like the casita and scamps a lot - but I believe they are set up as all electric.

This is my favorite way to camp. All dry camping and no generator - if it can't run on the battery or propane, then I don't need it. It's 21 feet so it fits almost anywhere.

Love your rig toedtoes. That would be my preference to have a self contained one like yours with vehicle and living space combined, but since we already had the pickup, a small travel trailer was a nice addition to the various boats parked around our yard. My TT is battery and propane as well as electric.

Re: My New Rig...

I originally wanted a truck camper (grew up in one), but since I had an SUV not a pickup, the cost was too much. This has worked out well because it gives me a second vehicle when needed. I also found that my insurance has gone down - the mileage I was putting on the SUV have dropped significantly since I'm not using it to go camping, etc., and the insurance on a 1975 RV is extremely cheap (about $40 more than the 1980's trailer I had prior).
