RV Mfg's Missing a new market segment

OMG!!!

Someone wishing for camper with two private sleeping areas is thought to be an 'unusual demand'.

I can't imagine for the life of me why people can not imagine two or more elderly, not married, people wanting to travel together comfortably.

Just because you are older and now ALONE does not mean you do not still enjoy camping just as much as you did when you were younger. A great many older folks continue to snowbird alone but many do find a friend/companion to travel with.

Why is it unusual to desire a private sleeping/dressing area?

Somewhere someone decided that it would be "highly disireable" to have a kitchen outdoors and lo and behold...

Somewhere someone decided that it would be "highly desirable" to have a FIREPLACE in you camper and lo and behold...

Somewhere someone decided that it would be highly desirable" to have a GARAGE in your camper and lo and behold...

There are a plethora of options available in RV/campers that I would have no use for. No problem, I don't have to buy one because there are CHOICES.

For crying out loud, changing a layout to make a sleeping area on both ends is not ROCKET SCIENCE. Some people act like the OP had appearantly stepped over that invisible line into the unthinkable...

Thanks for your post and I think it is a fitting place to end this conversation.

Here is a statistic to think about: According to the Population Reference Bureau and the US cnesus:

"(February 2014) The U.S. baby-boom generation – those born between 1946 and 1964 – is the largest generation in American history and a major force in the country’s demographic future. And given that 33 percent of these baby boomers are single, they may face economic, social, and health disadvantages because they aren't married."

There are those that will always be satisfied with the status quo and those like me who are not. I simply see it differently.
