    We picked up a Micro Minnie 2106DS. Only got to use it once this fall. Looking forward to next 2019 spring/summer/fall though.

    There is a three-year old rPod 179 with a For Sale sign sitting on the side of the road near here. Don't have an immediate use for one but I'm sorely tempted.

    Truck looks nice and level. Are you using sway control bars or a special hitch to tow yours?

    We had a 177 for a few years and upgraded to a 179 at the end of the camping season. It’s very comfortable with more storage and more counter space.

    No sway control or wdh. Tongue weight is around 320 lbs so not a problem with squatting. Tows nicely.

    I.ve got 3 fridges oh :lalala: :boink: maybe when we start going for long trips and are out there for a while I will add one to the truck. That is a good idea not yet though too much other stuff to get done first. Next will be fitting a matching set of Tundra wheels to the camper like the truck has then I am going to box sections of the frame

    Well, I started in August with just the fridge for the truck. November rolled around and I gained 2 more I wasn't really expecting. I rented one in October to surprise my son with for his birthday since he told me he wanted to go camping. Less than a month later I was picking one up to bring home.


    So this started it.

    Didn’t take long to figure out a 1700BH wasn’t big enough. Plus I really prefer a tandem trailer. Got there and all they had were the Grand Tourings with slideouts. Wife and son really liked it and I didn’t realize how much extra room that slideout gave. So we ended up with a slide out. Haha.

    That is really nice. I like the all they're just neat to look at and allthe stuff they have in them. A friend here bought a 44 footer 3 slide outs, kitchen with an island, leather furniture, big screen tv, and a gas fireplace. I was just like DAMN! That is one of the things I enjoy when we go to camp grounds is looking at all the neat campers and we have met people from all over the world. Could you boone dock with that one also?

    The Winnebago no, it wasn't set up for it. We can with ours with 43 gallon freshwater tank with 38 gray and black. If I was going to do that I'd switch over to 2 6v batteries instead though and probably add solar. It's prewired for solar already. Here's a couple pics of the inside. I met a fellow Tacoma owner down there last time with one of these without the slideout and he really liked his and said the Tacoma pulled it fine. He let me check his out.

    When we were looking my son wanted to look at a 5th wheel. I told him he could look at 2 real quick. The second one we went in will probably be what we move to next. It was a Grand Designs Reflection and it was huge. Like you said with the island, couches and recliners, 60" with a fireplace under it. Kind size bed with walk in closet and washer/dryer. lol
