Title: Attempting to address issue #377 by making content on the response model a little smarter

Calling the content attribute on a response that has no content causes an error after the second time. On async requests, prefetch is set to true by default so all calls to content from an async response cause an error.

My change does change the default value for _content. All tests pass and I added a new one to replicate the issue and ensure that it works with my patch.
