switching out rear sofa for twin beds?

We looked for three months for twin beds in the Pleasure-Way Plateau or the Leisure Travel Van Free Spirit. Will pick up our new Plateau next week! I checked RVTrader, Craigslist and Oodle Marketplace daily. It was a pain, but we're very happy now. You're right, there aren't many with twin beds, but keep looking. We saw three before finding the one we bought. (I'm sending a PM too) Good luck!

the outside shower recess and tire jack are also under the sofas

on some of the rear sofa models, that stuff is built in under the sofa ( you can see the fuse/breaker electrical panels on pics)

so it's not so much the sofas- it's the stuff built in underneath them.


I really like my lexor TD, they made lots, so expand your search.
Roadtrek Popular model may also suit you
don;t overlook craigslist- rvtrader is essentially a dealer listing- individuals often use craigslist and that's where we found ours.

with pleasure-way, search also pleasure way, pleasureway, and roadtrek/ road trek

Thanks for the tips.

I bought both of my antiques off Craigslist. When I saw the picture of the Roadtrek I instantly knew it was my neighbor and called him quick.

I have read a couple of accounts where folding sofa/beds were swapped out for DIY twin beds. If their length is there for the sofa/bed the same length is there for twin beds.

I believe Booster here maybe and definitely on ClassBForum has written this up extensively with details and photos.

I'm looking for a used one, and there are not many of them on the market in my price range.
