The Forest River R-Pod has been a phenomenon for the camper industry. Introduced in 2010, the R-Pod has maintained a lightweight design with a feature filled trailer at an affordable price point.

R-Pods have dominated the lightweight trailer segment for years. Forest River’s initial reason for making the R-Pod was to have many different floor plans all under 3,000 pounds to be towable by most any SUV or light truck. This was achieved and Forest River has 11(!) floor plans for the R-Pods. Colorado RV Center has been the Number 1 dealership for Hood River Edition R-Pods for the past 3 years. Pretty crazy to think that our little town of South Fork, CO houses the R-Pod specialists.
