    R-pod Full Time Living

    The R-Pod is is still on my list for full-timing (solo traveler). I'm finding it difficult to make a decision...it's between the.R-pod, Hummingbird, Geo Pro and Camp Lite. Are there any negatives to your 174?

    Thank you for the ride-a-long. It was quite interesting watching the change of scenery with the rise in elevation. Well done video.

    R-pod Full Time Living

    Look's like a very capable trailer for extreme conditions...right up to the point where they got stuck in the mud! The Toyota seemed to struggle a bit with the weight. Australia would be quite an interesting environment to explore. I enjoyed the video...thank you.

    R-pod Full Time Living

    I'll keep you posted! My plan is to begin my full time travels in January of 2019. Prior to that - I will purchase the trailer, make some interior modifications and equip it as needed - it should be a fun project.

    R-pod Full Time Living

    Thank you for the input. I think the Fantastic fan would be very sufficient in a small trailer along with cross ventilation. I've done some research on dry camping requirements and would also either install two type 27 or two 6 volt batteries in a tongue box, depending on weight. My plan is...

    R-pod Full Time Living

    Looks like a very nice combination (tow vehicle and trailer) I was initially considering the R-pod. However, I'm now leaning toward the Jayco Hummingbird 17RB (Baja Edition). I believe it is identical in layout to your Satellite. I did a walkthrough recently at a local rv dealer and liked...

    R-pod Full Time Living

    Thank you for the detailed list of interior modifications - very helpful. I think the R-pod 171 will be quite workable, if everything is well organized. I have an Ikea catalog - a great source for ideas. Interesting about the decals - I've been researching the best methods for removal. I'm...

    R-pod Full Time Living

    I just ran across your post w/images. I've been researching small camping trailers for the past two years and have narrowed my choices to the R-pod 171 and the Jayco Hummingbird 16FD. I am leaning towards the R-pod (Hood River). I will be eventually traveling solo full time within 1-2 years...
