New 2026 Forest River R-POD 171

Check out Forest River's top-selling RPOD, the new 2026 Forest River R-Pod 171 Hood River Edition is an ultra-lightweight travel trailer measuring just 19 feet in length with a dry weight under 2,600 pounds, making it towable by many midsize SUVs and crossovers. This compact couples coach features a rear queen bed for comfortable sleeping, a convertible booth dinette that provides additional sleeping space for up to three guests, and a space-efficient wet bath with shower. The well-appointed galley kitchen includes a two-burner cooktop, microwave oven, refrigerator, and seamless Surf-X countertops with a stainless steel undermount sink. The Hood River Edition elevates this R-Pod with premium off-road capabilities, including Mud Legend all-terrain tires with tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), MaxxAir vent cover for enhanced ventilation, and 12-volt tank heaters for extended-season camping. A 12-volt LED television provides entertainment on rainy days, while slam latch cargo doors ensure secure storage access.

Forest River's R-Pod delivers affordable luxury at the lowest tow weight in its class with construction features designed for adventure. The sealed underbelly with forced heat protects components in cold weather, while the curved dual-pane acrylic front window with bug screen and night shade maximizes natural light and ventilation. A large roof-mounted solar panel provides off-grid capabilities for boondocking, and the 15,000 BTU air conditioning unit ensures comfort during summer camping. The tankless water heater delivers endless hot showers after outdoor activities, complemented by a hot and cold exterior spray port for washing off sand and gear. Interior amenities include blackout roller shades throughout, a central vacuum system for easy cleanup, exterior motion lighting for nighttime convenience, and roof ladder prep for maintenance access. With a black glass friction hinge entrance door and the lowest tow weight in its class, the R-Pod 171 Hood River Edition is the perfect companion for couples seeking lightweight, no-compromise adventures.
