I don’t think i have ever seen an rv that sleeps 6 and belts 8 . Where would you belt them in ?
In the dinette ? For 500 miles ?
How about thinking about following in the car and adding a tent.
My class C theoretically sleeps eight: two in the bed in back, two in the large cabover, two on the fold-out couch, and two on the dinette. It has a total of nine seat-belted positions: the front driver and passenger seats, three across the couch, two on each side of the dinette.
I think current federal DOT regulations require at least as many seat belts as there are advertised/claimed sleeping positions. Any motorhome that claims to sleep 8 needs to have 8 or more seat belts. I may be mistaken about that.
Hi Drew, im not sure either . My 2018 non slide unit sleeps 6 but only seatbelts 4 incl driver and passenger. I have a rear side QB, cabover full queen and one of those horse-shoe (Bigg Yella no pun intended, I know you have horses :) ) dinettes that sleep 2 kids or 2 cozy adults.
I will say that my dinette is not comfortable to sit at. Cushions are not deep enough and the covering is slippery.
Its like satin sheets, the first time we jumped into that dinette we nearly flew out the window.
We wish we could rebuild it to accommodate a set of recliners but it doesn't appear to be possible. At least not for my limited carpentry skills. :(
