My dream R-pod

Originally posted by spydie Won't do it for me.  Wife and I refuse to climb over each other to get out of bed in the middle of the night and the dinette in the rear (I have now in the 176) is the wrong place for the dinette in these retro trailers with the sharp taper roofline.  The roofline tapers so quickly that nobody can sit on the rear bench, only the sides, because your head hits the roof.  Making a dry bath on the side seemed impossible until I noticed that they are making a larger frame/floorplan than the existing ones.  Might as well buy a standard rectangular camper.  The Passport (available at Camping World) would fit our needs with a dry bath and bunk beds, but it's larger than what I have because it has a queen also.  I don't need that much bed space.  But we do need bunk beds and a dry bath.  The dinette on the side is the only thing that makes sense in these retro trailers with extreme taper in the back.

well.. since you already don't sleep together, one in the bed and one on the dinette, now no one has to climb in and out of a bunk bed.. and you each have more room. converting the dinette back and forth isn't a huge deal, and not needed at all if like us, you are outside most of the time anyways.

We wanted to check out small, so we rented a pod-like trailer. It only had a convertible dinette/bed. Switching back and forth twice a day was a no-go, so we decided that whatever we bought had to have a queen AND a dinette/bed.
