Papa O,
Regarding making the bed every day, at home we *never* make our bed because during the day we roam the rest of the house and ignore it. But on the road we make our bed each day, at least on the days we move from one place to another, and it's done in a jiffy. We just stand up, stuff 2 comforters, 2 sheets and 2 pillows in the overhead cabinet, and it's done!
I might mention that in our case, we have a Pleasureway TS. We lower the sofa and then sleep on it like it's twin beds so that either of us can easily step out into the aisle to use the loo during the night. This ends up being fairly similar to the configuration we saw in the one Airstream Interstate we've been in, though I would say the Interstate had even longer beds--good if you're tall, but the gain in bed length costs you in galley (the Airstream fridge was like a hotel mini-bar's) and storage. For us, at 5'7" and 5'9", the Pleasureway won on storage.
We nixed the Winnebago and Road Treks from consideration because of the three chair configuration.
But yes to what others said about standing/sitting/imagining yourself living in one. All these issues are so personal, only you can decide what's going to work for you. For us, the Pleasureway was the first one we saw that was, literally, a car we could live in. We need a lot more comfort than we did when we both dreamed of owning a VW Pop-top camper eons ago, but we still want to fit into small spaces and camp next to rivers. With this, we can. And we get 22 mpg!
All that said, I too am interested in what you mean by 'stealth'. Can you elaborate?
