Sorry this is long but I will offer a detailed response.
Have TT in sig. Loaded with gear she weighs in at right about 9000lbs. Approximately 1100lb hitch weight. It is 38ft long. In the bunk room there are two upper bunks one over the outdoor kitchen.
Instead of a bottom bunk we have a fold out sofa which is nice because it offers enough room for two adults to sleep back there plus the two upper bunks. The sofa is also nice as it offers a place for the kids to sit and play or watch TV if the weather is bad. It has a slide for that room so it opens nice and big. The downside is that this model with the slide is about 800lbs heavier than the same floorplan without the slide(which is no longer available). The downside is certainly the weight. I have no trouble towing with my 1-ton Dodge but it could be easily handled with a 2500 model.
The queen bed is a good size and actually has some room at the foot where you could put on a slightly longer matress. I am 5'11" and I don't reach end to end. We have 3 children and went with this model so in the future if one of the kids wants to bring a friend we have plenty of room.
The main area has a nice big U-shaped dinette that easily fits all 5 of us. There is also another fold out sofa. They say it will sleep 10 and I can tell you that it certainly will.
We use the outdoor kitchen way more than we thought we would. It is awesome to have the outdoor fridge for longer trips. We keep all our beverages out there so the inside fridge can be dedicated for food. PM me for questions or more info if you want.
