At this point, I'm little tired of the conjecture of the long bed vs short bed design. As far as I'm concerned, they have the exact same dimensions save for the enclosed area at the rear of the shorts. I have yet to be convinced that there is any difference. They ARE the same in length. Are the compartments open or empty on the topside? What material is in there?
The only way to know for sure would be for someone with a short bed to post up pics under the kitchen sink and behind the furnace vent. You can't tell any other way. THAT would put this long vs. short bed design argument to rest. Again, comes from the factory and what is are two very different things. This design flaw needs to be addressed figured out BEFORE someone gets injured or worse. They never even got back with Nolan after his repeated attempts. What kind of respectable RV company does that?
Joe,
I agree. The design is a flaw that needs to be addressed by NW.
As for the long-bed vs short-bed differences, it isn't conjecture. You can see the plywood splices (seams) in plain view from the outside on all long-bed Wolf Creek 850s. They're in plain view in the incident photos provided in this thread as well. There are no such splices on the short-bed models. I have one. I've looked inside and out and see no splices or seams anywhere. Believe me, if there were they would've revealed themselves by now. I've owned this camper for three years. I've also camped and driven in some pretty severe winds.
