Coachman Freelander 2700RS Question

I've looked at a couple of the Freelanders with the Rear Bed slide. Like the floorplan, but have reservations about the co-pilot seat. It looks awful cramped. The dinette bench looks like it limits the rear travel of the co-pilot seat and virtually eliminates the ability to recline it.

Anyone have one, or experience with one? How do you find the useability of the co-pilot seat? Would it be possible to remove that dinette bench and just use the forward facing one to enable the co-pilot seat to have more room?

Now have a Sprinter based Class C and the spacious cockpit is one of it's finest features. The V-10 in the Ford eats a lot of the space available during travel. Limiting the travel of the seats really hurts an already marginal cockpit.

Thanks,

Wes
