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...

We bought our unit based on the ridiculously good deal we were offered, and the fact that I don't hit my head anywhere in the rig (I'm 6'5"). With that said...
There are several "storage" areas inside the unit that even I cannot reach without a step-stool.::The refrigerator is in an angled section of wall and is about halfway covered by the living/dining area slide when it's retracted. The first time I left the fridge doors partially open to dry it out after a trip, the slide broke the handle off of the freezer. I ended up reversing the door so that it opens on the other side and no longer hits the slideout, but why couldn't the manufacturer have thought of this?
Under the refrigerator, there is a storage area that is bisected by a diagonal ABS pipe that makes the compartment completely useless. It could easily have been routed differently.
My livingroom vent handle is literally eight feet off the floor. A power-opening vent with a remote control is in my future when budget allows.
I have zero counter space in the kitchen, but twice as much livingroom as I need.
The back of the unit has exactly two tail lamps with one bulb each. As a matter of safety, I would much rather have reverse lamps, amber turn signals and at least two stop/tail lamps per side. I will eventually fix this, but I fervently hope that the manufacturer saw fit to run all of the wiring back from the pin box so that I do not have to.
