Design - What were they thinking??
Sometimes I wonder what RV designers were thinking. Have you experienced "design flaws" w/ RV's that have you shaking your head. I don't want to trash ANY brand - just wondered... We love our Cou...

oh man how many days I said I wish I could design a floorplan :) {snip...}
Dedicated bed(s) - don't have to turn some other furniture into a bed.
Small enough to get into any site.
Jalousie windows so they can be opened in the rain.
Exhaust of the water heater and furnace on the street side so they don't blast us as we sit outside under the awning.
Water and waste tanks clustered around the axles so we can travel with any or all of them full.
Plenty of room inside without bottlenecks for passing.
Pilot lights for our stove and oven so they are ready to go at the turn of a knob.
Double stainless steel sinks - that's one of the big things to me - that one small round sink a lot of the new ones have - what's up with that?
DSI water heater (don't have to go outside to light a pilot).
No uncomfortable dinette to waste space.
Not a square box to drag around like a brick or billboard.
The wood is real oak - not particle board.
I really do feel for the folks looking at new - we go to the RV shows and say the same thing to ourselves - "What were they thinking?"
Here's hoping ours lasts a bunch more years... :)
