Have you looked at the price of pop-ups, lately? :h
I have not....oh well...
I thought the R-Pod had brakes because it lists a "breakaway switch" on the standard equipment list. The breakaway switch tethers to the vehicle and pulls a pin that applies the trailer brakes full-on in case of a separation from the vehicle. I assumed (yeah, I know LOL) that they wouldn't list the breakaway switch as standard if it didn't have brakes....
OP, don't forget you need the wiring for trailer lights also. If you are handy, you can get a plug-n-play kit here at e-Trailer.com.
Here are a few 2" receiver hitches at e-Trailer.com that bolt on in place of the existing receiver with no drilling.
If you do get a trailer with brakes, you'll also need to wire in a brake controller, here are some choices. I use a Prodigy P2, may like the P3 better.
Bottom line you can get all set up with wiring, receiver and brake controller for a only a few hundred and an afternoon if you are handy.
