2010 Forest River R-Pod RP-172

Came across this camper in our town and was looking for tips to keep in mind when looking at it as to what to watch out for and what questions to ask the current owner. Newbie, haven't camped for years but think its better to buy used due to overall cost etc. Are certain years better than others. Thanks for any info.

    Brand new RPod 172s go for around 17K US, so yea, thats way over priced, even by CDN dollars.


    Thanks for the info, will not bother looking at this one.

    Just because that is what they are asking, doesn’t mean what they will take. More than likely, reality has not yet descended upon the seller.
