Head Room Help
Hello All! I am new to the forum but not new to RVing. I currently have a TT. I am looking at 5ers and have a lot of concerns with the head room in the raised portion of the camper. I am 6'8" tall...

So trailers are limited to 13'6" overall height. So if you have a lot of headroom in the bedroom you are giving up something somewhere else. I just measured our 2017 Bighorn 3575el that is 13' 4" high and bedroom is 6'4", and this is on a high profile trailer.

Interesting to think about. Assuming the overhang area is approximately the same distance from the ground, one would think the 13-4 coach would have more head room than the 12-2 coach. But the larger coach has a frame with more cross section, taller tires, possibly taller leaf springs, possibly thicker roof trusses. The basement storage may be taller too. We only have two steps up into the bedroom, where others might have 3.
I also agree with the OP. That ceiling clearance would be a nice specification to have in the brochures, but I've never seen one. RV's are like everything else-designed for middle of the road buyers. No effort made to fit dwarfs or the extra tall.
