The kayaks likely are already on a roof rack, good place for them. now you have the bed for firewood, generator, etc. that and fivers have a huge basement.
To each their own, but with a few exceptions " loosing the Bed" is not a big deal. I will grant Dutchman an exception, as his livelihood is in the back of the TV, not so much camping stuff.
