First time getting a small travel trailer need small and light to tow behind a Chevy equinox but have to have self contained wet bath to live at ynp for work! Looking at the 07 funfinder x139 but someone said the rpod would tow better due to aerodynamic shape ?? Found a 2018 rp 178 but it's longer 20ft ?? Any suggestions
How many spots you post the same question?
Thats actually awesome. I thought there were actually 3 new topics today , slightly disappointing they were all the same question, but exciting for the new forum. You doubled the daily posts here today !
well there were some posts drug up from 2007 and 2012 in the 5th wheel group 😊
My father owns a Funfinder 139, I think older than '07 but I'm not positive. My wife and I used the heck out of it until we had kids, lots of fun and has all the features in a tiny package. the downside is it is a tiny package. I don't think I'd like to live in it full time! My folks drove it from Montana to Alaska and then took a ferry with it back home. They loaned it out to family for a drive to Alaska and back as well. I remember the gray tank being small capacity and it would often fill up to the point of backing up out of the floor/shower drain in the bathroom. This could also have been a factor of learning to use a camper off grid responsibly, minimizing water use, etc. The master bed is the kind you have to break down the dining table for. This gets old very fast, we would just leave it in bed mode full time and use a tiny fold out table and chair or eat outside. I don't have any experience with R-Pods, but I wouldn't put any faith in an aerodynamic camper claim. Unless it is a pop-up low profile setup while towing, I doubt you're going to see "better" mileage. If it has a full time bed and full time dining arrangement that you don't have to setup to use, that would be a huge plus over a funfinder 139.
