here's what most non-hybrid owners don't consider.
you can TURTLE in a hybrid. then it's NO different that any other regular TT. you sleep on the dinette and sofa, like any other smaller TT.
that's one of the great things about a hybrid TT.
and the soft-sided bans are in VERY few campgrounds.
Yellowstone NP has only ONE campground that has permanent ban on soft-sided campers. that's Fishing Bridge CG.
ALL the other major campgrounds in YNP, allow for soft-sided campers, including Bridge Bay CG, only a short distance from Fishing Bridge.
Yosemite NP, which has issues with black bears, have NO restrictions to hybrids or popups.

if they don't ban tents, then hybrids and popups are allowed.
and, as mentioned before, if there is a restriction, then just TURTLE your hybrid.
