Hi everyone!

My partner and I are looking into our first purchase for a camper trailer and I keep coming back to this forum. Looking forward to doing lots of research before we make a decision.

So far looks like the Forest River E-Pro 12RK is at the top of the list.

What I really want to know is how ready it is for solar and what kit I would need to install to make sure I've got plenty of juice for when we're out in the middle of nowhere!

Anyhow, I look forward to chatting with lots of you and learning the fun places to go around Ohio.

Just looked at the Geo-Pro, the Rockwood twin of the Flagstaff E-Pro.

Although it is slightly different in shape, it looks a lot like the RPod in build and finishes.

OP since you live Ohio, you should be able to get a good price.
Be sure to also look at the twin Geo-Pro.
There are WAY more Rockwood dealers than Flagstaff dealers.

KOA Shelby/Mansfield

KOA Buckeye Lake

Shelby is our favorite in Ohio, we try to go there at least twice a season for a weekend.

Oh, and get an R-Pod. A few grand more, still an easy pull, and everything, including the john, is inside, out of the rain.

Jeff Couch RV in Hamilton, between Dayton and Cincy. Best prices anywhere on R-Pods.

Alum Creek state park in Delaware.

Second in the Hocking Hills KOA. Just don't check in early - one lane road in and out and they are not kidding. Owners stop by every day to see if you need anything etc.

The 12rk is just a taller teardrop.
