Front Bunkhouse fifth wheel
We're considering moving up to a 5er. We've had a quad bunk TT for 12 years but we're thinking it's time to upgrade a bit and move to a fifth wheel. I have plenty of truck (just need to watch pin we...

I have been looking at the front bunkhouse too, and am liking the Jayco Eagle HT 29.5FBDS so far.
The puzzle I am trying to solve is a floorplan with a 60x80 main bed, and something with an 80" or longer secondary bed, and trying to stay closer to 35'± and reasonable pin weight.
I looked at several models with rear double or queen bunks which were all 74"± long, and thought I could get a larger mattress to extend over the steps. See thread here: http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/29071882.cfm
Looking at the Jayco Eagle HT 29.5HBDS, it looks like the bottom floor of the bunk room could be one large bed with a maximum size of 74"x93", plenty big. And we would still have the top bunks for storage or other sleeping if necessary. It looks like you could do the same thing with the Springdale 320FWFB.
This front bunkhouse floorplan seems like it would be pretty nice, with the bathroom on the main level and a decent window out the back bedroom.
I looked at a couple of front living floorplans, and really like how open they are and how the front is kind of flex space depending on your needs. I actually like these floorplans better. However, they seem to be closer to 38-42' and heavier pin weight. Also, the fold out couches won't be as comfortable as a decent mattress on the floor of the front area. They also have 4-5 slides rather than the 2 slides of the 29.5FBDS.
Anyone know of any other nice front bunk plans?
