One of my thoughts about the rear bedroom was take the bed out, build a platform in the space between the cabinets where the bed would have been & place a twin mattress or an airbed on the platform, leaving the rest of the bedroom for space for other things. One could make that a small day bed area or sleeping bed for night. If done right, then one could also use the bottom of the platform for storage as well.TexCynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05174615550131393975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154341542671654923.post-81160133528651916022011-12-21T11:46:05.978-06:002011-12-21T11:46:05.978-06:00TexCyn ... thanks for including the letter. There ...TexCyn ... thanks for including the letter. There is a lot of good information there for someone looking at RV's for the first time. You and I have spoke before about different design ideas to make living with dogs a little easier. After I buy my rig, I would like to remove the bed over cabin and then mount my large tv up there plus other electronic equipment.<br /><br />Then I would have to keep the bed in back installed. Yet, it is still very tempting to remove that back bed and make it an office like I have at home and maybe put the TV in back along with computers, PS3 and the hounds.<br /><br />Good info.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154341542671654923.post-76668814296136532472011-12-21T10:26:14.074-06:002011-12-21T10:26:14.074-06:00Thanks so much for leaving your comments John &...Thanks so much for leaving your comments John & JoJo! I really appreciate it. I plan on sending this page to the girl, so the more comments, the better! It would have been great had I had this kind of info when I was looking. But then, at the time I got mine, my needs were quite different back then from what they are now, 5 years later.TexCynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05174615550131393975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154341542671654923.post-11172977831263007612011-12-21T09:57:40.772-06:002011-12-21T09:57:40.772-06:00I also have a Class C 23ft.1996 Winnie/Spirit I wi...I also have a Class C 23ft.1996 Winnie/Spirit I wish it had a slide. I think the slide would make a big difference. I have the back corner bed which I don't care for either but it works. Since I don't use the top bunk I have taken out the mattress and attached plastic drawers up there for added storage. I have a very small closet but it works for me. There weren't any drawers at all. My bathroom is tiny but that also works. My front seats would be able to turn if they had room. I also took out the dinette to make a sofa out of it and made a back cushion out of a single sized futon mattress. I have lots of overhead storage but the ones over the bed are kind of lost to me since I can't get on my knees. All in all its a good rig with some minor repairs I need to take care of caused by the previous owner who turned out to be quite an idiot. Oh and I do have an oven but have never used it.JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658713978278693047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154341542671654923.post-37871382209879712372011-12-20T23:52:31.933-06:002011-12-20T23:52:31.933-06:00I think all full timers would agree that there is ...I think all full timers would agree that there is no perfect rig and the more we live in them the more changes we would make. I too have a class C 31" Jayco Melbourne and it has two slides. It works well for me, but might not for others. All I can say would be to look and look and look and eventually you'll step into one that just fits. Good searching.<br />By the way the convection oven works just like a regular oven except it cooks in half the time.John Hedgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775467781360772348noreply@blogger.com
