Not sure why... really not an off-road type of RV...
Given it's rather compact size, it sure could be taken off hard surface roads and out some into the middle of nowhere with the 4500 chassis, the 57 gallon tank, and slightly larger diameter tire sizes for more ground clearance. Those changes would go a long way towards making it a great rig for better boondocking out West, along with all regular camping spots and styles everywhere. That's how I have our 24 foot Itasca Class C set up now for good versatility.
The reason for my cabover bed issue: In our case, the DW has a bad back and so needs all the spread-out room of the rear corner bed. I sleep in the queen size overhead bed, but could get by with just a single bed up there with less/limited head room so as to still make good aero-dynamic shaping possible. We need to maintain a permanent table so as to make getting ready for bed a minimum hassle and hold stuff for nighttime use, plus for a occasional grand-kids sleeping bed.
Leisure is coming close to offering a versatile Class C like I describe above. (Except it's only offered on a chassis without enough cylinders in it's engine. :B )
Phoenix Cruiser also could offer a versatile Class C like I describe above.
