Frequently asked questions
Q.
Can my vehicle tow the Escape Pod?
A.
The best way to find out if your vehicle has the proper towing capacity is to contact your dealer. If your vehicle cannot tow a minimum of 3500lbs, you will need to find a different vehicle to rent to Escape Pod or request delivery.
Q.
My vehicle already has a tow package. Why do I need a brake controller?
A.
The Escape Pod is equipped with electric brakes. The total GVW of the Pod exceeds 2998lbs, and for safety reasons a brake controller is required to tow the Pod. Just because your vehicle can tow the pod, does not mean it will have as easy as a time stopping the Pod. Electric brakes ensure adequate power and control are assisting to bring the weight of the trailer (and the towing vehicle) to a complete stop.
Q.
What flexibility is available for picking up and dropping off the RV?
A.
I am very flexible. As long as pick-up is during daylight hours, I will work with you on the time. If the booking is a weekday delivery, it will usually be completed after 4:00pm. Depending on the duration between the booking and delivery, sometimes it can be during the day. If the booking is a weekend delivery, the delivery time is flexible.

Hi there,
My name is AJ and I live in the beautiful province of MB in Canada.
I've got 2 dogs, Vera and Sapphire and our favourite thing to do is go camping in the pod and go adventuring on the weekends. We thought it would be nice to share the experience with those who do not have an R-Pod and look forward to the adventures and friendships that lie ahead.
