Charlie,

Timing is, as always, everything. Somehow I missed your note and we've been up to our necks in work on our new home in Red Wing, MN all summer. We just lucked into a 179 from a local seller and they brought it by for us today. Hope you had some luck with the toy hauler? I'm still planning on loading my bike into the pickup, but it's about 1/2 of your motorcycle (Yamaha WR250X). I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to load a BMW of any sort into the back of our Nissan pickup. 

I'd love to see some pictures of your seating arrangement and hear what you did to make the bed more comfortable. 

Take care,
Tom Day

Just received my tilt bracket and installed this evening. What a great difference. I can now watch the flat screen TV while laying in bed. Thanks for the recommendation!

We just added the 3" Memory Gel Foam mattress topper to our bed in our 179. Just 3" but made a world of difference. Also bought ours from COSTCO for $158.00.

You have to drill some holes in your TV swing arm brlacket. This is the one I bought that was suggested on another thread.
