I have used a shower like this for a year and a half. It’s doable. We have to, as Hurricane Harvey took our house,.
I DID NOT expect to find a Dry Shower in a unit this small! Fantastic!
One thing they don’t tell newbys is what a PITA it is making up the beds.
Nice floor plan it’s good to have a couch and a bed I like it. It’s about time something tiny has something like this instead of the same old little booth tables. You would see in a diner.
My sentiments exactly the coach is more versatile
11:30 for the inside.
Buckmark thanks
Too many close-up. Still haven't a idea what floorplan looks like. I guess I'll go somewhere else
ooo just show me the inside!!! The technical details can be explored later....
Thats always me... lol
I know right? I want to see the inside design. I don't care about all that hookup stuff. Lol
Great video and nice detailed look. I bought a 2019 R-Pod 191 and my only complaint is that the window grab handles (which you need to put a finger behind and pull out to unlock the window) is backwards! Thus, only a pinky will fit behind it when it's in the closed/locked position. This problem could've been avoided simply by flipping the handle around (definitely wouldn't be hard to do, but I'm on the road currently).
Nice model. If only Forest River would make the above the kitchen storage cabinet a few inches deeper. As it is, plates will not fit lying flat. Also 2 doors on the front would make the ends more accessible. Small improvement but worthwhile.
Dual axel would make it a perfect travel trailer. After a full fresh water tank your limited on how much gear you can carry.
Very nice. Great use of space 👍
Is my 2020 Toyota Tacoma Pro capable of hauling this with ease? Thank you
That's a lot packed into such a small trailer.
All the people gripping and trying to tell this man how to do his video need to go take your meds!!!!! NICE VIDEO, NICE PRESENTATION AND NICE CAMPER!!!!!
Ray, please do a complete review if you get the R Pod 191 model. We are really interested in that floor plan.. can you also open the windows to see how they work.. thanks again you always do great reviews.
Good review brother! That sink is a no go.
The sink is good the idea is we eat less, also this is a personal RV for singles.
You'll never wash anything much bigger than a coffee cup in that sink without getting water all over the place.
The sink is useless. Make it square to maximize the unused space. You can't wash anything in it because it's so small. I do like the bathroom.
Round is odd for a kitchen sink...bathroom sure...weird.
Hey guys how tough is this on off-roading? Thank you for the detailed video.
10.09 folks - he goes inside (well, nearly!) - skip to that bit, if you want...
Thanks
I prefer the outside described first; important info that I enjoy. Would have been mad if he skipped.
So no oven and the microwave is "optional" or you get a hole....but hey, the bathroom door has a lock....
That is correct. They don't do ovens in a lot of small campers like these. The Microwave however is a convection oven if you want that option. Most dealers stock it that way however some customers choose to order it without one.
10:00 until he gets inside the damn thing.
Right after he describes the Vin number sticker.
Just watch at double speed....
rob black 😂😂😂
Just move the bar to the point you wan to see
You had me at the 10th anniversary decal. Everything else was just gravy.
Great review. I think that they could put a Murphy bed in the front of the trailer and a larger refrigerator. The other features are excellent for a trailer this size.
Or have the option for a freezer where the convection micro wave is...freezer is more practical for many people.
This is small but it's simple and good enough for a family of 3 to go camping in... wouldn't use the outside grill cause its close to other things but the inside is simple enough for a family of 3
that grill isn't going to hurt anything, every camper manufacturer has half a dozen floorplans with a camp kitchen, very common.
How much does it cost please
Did I miss the price? Someone said $17K is this right?
Really love it's
4K TV should be standard on this smaller RV so we can use a PS5
Some people are clueless on how to do a video presentation of hardware etc. Do an overview first to catch people's interest. Then do all the little details. Don't start with arcane detail!!
Nice lay out!! Wonder can add front window ?
Square sink might be roomier. But I do like it. Nice slide out too.
I’m saving up for it trying to pay my enormous debt :)
So what does my cars towing capacity have to be to tow this trailer across the country? I have a Jeep JL 4 door rubicon towing cap is 3500lb
I bought this exact trailer in August of this year, and tow it with my 2016 Wrangler unlimited with the max tow package (your Rubicon has the max towing package as well). It tows great, mine is 2,900 lbs with all standard equipment and with it loaded with my gear, fridge full etc it comes in around 3250 lbs. You won't have any problem towing it with your Rubicon. This model of the rpod is great too, very happy with it.
good vid, nice commentary
I'm homeless and need a new home, how much did you paid for yours?
Thank you for a great walk thru video. I am a new owner and your information gave me a great overview.
So Disappointed, that the "hitch" will still not support 2 , 60lb, Rad Bikes. we were were going to upgrade to get that feature. We have a city, and a step-through, can't figure any way to take the with the Rpod 180, and our Rubicon.
Hi Mike. They have a front mount bike rack option called the "Jack-IT Bike Rack" . I've had a few customers with heavier bikes do one of those on the front and then use the regular hitch on the back for another bike. It not the perfect solution but it might help.
Really like the floor plan, not so happy with the looks of interior
materials used, no stove ventilation, and the sink looks useless. Sorry, just really look at how comfortable, durable and functional a camper would be as we need one for 3 to 4 months continous travel. Thanks!
I agree about the sink.
LOL...its 01.02.2018 and we're looking at a 2019 -wait for it- "...and a half," model. Who knew a trailer company could beat NASA at space time theory!? Common everyday items all over the trailer are ALL known as just "things?" Loved the utter disdain for micro sized campers without locks on the bathroom door (a.k.a. the unfortunate folks who don't have it as good as us). I confess to still being torn over choosing a microwave oven, or a hole on an oven lacking trailer...decisions decisions!! Is a lock on the microwave/hole an option?? I'm surprised a front door is even included in the base model...hey, the bathroom locks. A two square foot table has enough pole support for a 20 foot solid wood dining table, but not enough legroom for anyone over the age of six -on a on a liquid diet? Horrid design for any stay longer than its takes to tell everyone you're gonna take piss in your Fort Knox style bathroom. They're just silly not up-marketing it as a trailer safe room for your entire family...and if evil Captain Carbon Monoxide tries to invade you...the over zoomed LED lights and "black thingy" will alert you you in advance.
The good news is the nice layout..
The bad news is that it's made by Forest River...
You are not a fan of Forest River? Is owned by Warren Buffet
Winnebago makes the tear drop that looks almost exactly the same but has square sink some give and takes with this model
can this be pulled with a Dodge Durango 3.7?
Skip to 8:00 to view the inside..
I like this R pod but the video needs improvement. Why so much emphasis on the specs when you list them anyhow? It takes too long to get an overview of the interior and I really didn't get a great feel for the interior b/c of the constant derailing with "buttons/switches/LED lighting" getting so much focus. ( I for one don't need stickers to be pointed out really at all). I think the pointing out of specs that you include in written form anyhow, takes far too long.
I want to plug in my blender. Can I do that behind the sink?
yes you can
@@allaboutrv What's the price point?
Great little trailor, but I want double axles and a dinett and that sink is way too small. Btw it's a good price.
Hey phil is it true double axles cause sway and possible flips? I don't know much about towable's but i saw a double axle travel trailer flip on RUclips and they blamed the double axle. I know tolls will cost more also.
My wife and I have a Double axle...have a Fastway E3 sway and load leveling system...so towing a dbl. axle is not bad at all...no sway even at 120 km/hr
Does the couch fold out into a bed?
Yes it does.
Not a very nice interior. A bit dissapointed. What do you use that tiny table for??
What is the price?
The new 2020 version of these sells for around $17,000 range.
@@allaboutrv
Not bad!
'19 1/2 ? It's only 2018 ?
My wife has a circular swoosh too !
I know. Pretty neat
Seriously, who actually takes a shower in one of these? Just eliminate the shower completely and use the space so that a normal-sized person can use the toilet without having to figure out what to do with their knees.
No, I need the shower...
Have you smelled people lol? I agree with you tho. The shower takes up a ton of space and wet baths are nasty but people stink. They should make an outdoor shower option. They can make a strong plastic O ring for the curtain and problem solved.
@J B No way really? That sounds freaking interesting. Gonna Google it now and see what that looks like. Never heard of that.
@J B JB Thanks just saw the Aussie one. It's freaking awesome. Such a man cave on wheels. Wish they sold them here. I'd humt from it all weekend long lol. Good weekend man.
@G H I actually dont need a shower anymore. Stupid cancer treatments keep me from sweating and smelling. Something good came out of it i guess.
I can move the table? excellent.
The table can be taken out when not needed.
Nice watch!!!
Is there a rent to own option
What s the difference between the wet bath and a dry bath????.
Wet bath is the whole floor in the bathroom is basically a shower basin. At first glance it appears to only be a toilet and sink. Look up closely and you'll see a shower head. The whole bath gets wet when you shower in that bathroom.
A dry bath has a separate tub or shower and the bathroom remains dry when you bathe.
Bonita y cual es su precio
What is the price
The new 2020 version of this goes for $17,160
I can't see the inside ? Wait my time ! !
V info vedio good work thanks
Mine is a 2014 R-Pod, frog is on a Lily Pad,
Why is it not as wide as the wheel base . seems a big waist of space
Sandra Hicks More Stability if wheelbase extends outside,,,, i would rather not flip over
It took 19 minutes to do this video on this thing, that is a laugh
He went at a painfully slow pace
Me gusta
Big mistake tires outside 👎👎👎👎👎👎
Got tired waiting to go inside
if only there was a way to fast forward...said 1950
Cool video
This is the worst and most Inconvenient R-Pod imo..
This trailer has separate dump tanks? So you have to move camper in order to dump Black & then Grey tanks independently? Also making others wait in a line to dump their tanks. How inconvenient and frustrating for owner let alone for others.
BTW,, it is disgusting that the outside grill is so close by dumping holder hose storage, also placed in an inconvenient spot. Yuck!!
Or buy a portable tank...even easier yet
Unfortunately, it won't fit someone 6'6" tall. 😢
Try looking at Apex Nano's floor plans. They might just fit you. Plus the other advantage is that they use azdel.
Im 6'6 and just toured one. Try again. I usually don't stand to my full height, and sleep on my side. It was completely comfortable for me.
