Is there an ideal side for the dinette?
I wonder if you seasoned campers would share your preferences over the years regarding the placement of the dinette?

Hi,
I have my dinette curbside, and most of the time while camping in the desert, I can see what is going out outside. Camping in a campground, I think that if you are on the drivers side, you would be looking at the neighbor's campsite more than yours. A couch on that side will look towards your camp, not the neighbor's window outside of yours.
I know someone who would only consider a kitchen sink on the curbside. She would cook in the RV and be looking at the neighbor's while in a campground, something she really hated doing. But that was back in the early 80's before slide outs, and back when a family normally cooked at home, even before microwaves where installed in a RV.
Her fifth wheel was passenger side door, then sink, then dinette, that was against the back wall, couch on the other side (At rear against the wall) then going forward refrigerator, bathroom, and bedroom.
