Slides In Pictures?

My coach is old and both slides are on the drivers side and not as deep as modern motor homes. It doesn't feel a great deal different when we are retracted and traveling. Does the unit you are looking at have four slides? What year?

I have never seen a Class A motorhome that you could not move around in with the slides closed. I would think it's probably some kind of a safety rule that you would have to be able to move around in it. I have seen trailers and 5th wheels that are completely blocked with the slides closed, but never a motorhome. Now it may be a tight fit, but you'll be able to get from the front to the back. My Tropical has three slides. When all are closed you can still easily walk from front to back and use the couch and dinette. You do have to crawl over the bed to get to the closet and the bet butts up against drawers that you can't open when the slide is closed, but other than that you can access everything else in the motorhome.

I have seen coaches where it was almost impossible to walk to the rear with the slides in. Why would a motorhome be any different then a fifth wheel trailer, the slides are just as big on some coaches.

Are you really wanting a class A or just more room for the family and dog when traveling? What about an E350 van with quad captains chairs? That is what we have. Dog gets the third row and the 4 of us are all in large captains chairs.

I agree with getting pics. We have done some shows. You might want to. I believe you will find that the living space, back to the BR space has plenty of space for one person to walk past those sitting. The dog on the floor will present a mild obstacle to walk over. If you get a midship TV/ent system with inverter, the kids could be XBoxing or watching movies while you drive.

It's tough finding the "perfect" layout in the 32-34' length. We like the bunk beds of the 34B but we also like the layout of the 33C with the TV facing the couch. XBox is something my kids would love to be able to do while riding..

Well, that doesn't sound too bad. As long as you can move around pretty easily in the 1st 2/3 of the cabin...

That's the norm on all slides in bedrooms, you can access the bed but not most the drawers, the living area in the 08 and newer Bounder has no issues with the slide out in, its the same as if there was no slide out.

Well, we are looking at Bounder from 2008 onwards to the new ones. I'm assuming these have wider slides?
