That bunk end would be a deal breaker for me. We got out of Pups, Which I like a lot. But I just don't want to mess with canvas any more. 25 years was enough. High maintiance
Which only means you don't understand the target market for this trailer - grandparents who want to take the grandkids camping. It's also a wonderful solution for those who only occasionally may take another couple with them camping and want to offer completely separate sleeping accommodation from the main bedroom. In point of fact the 254DSX was brilliant but the problem was that most potential customers were like you and didn't understand it, and that's the reason it was pulled (too soon IMO) from the Freedom Express lineup. :( We sure could have used a 254DSX recently when we took friends of ours from Downunder camping - solved it with a tent but being able to offer their own sleeping quarters within the trailer would have been a much better solution. :B
Or it could mean that after Camping for more than 25 years under canvas. I no longer want to mess with it Maintaing canvas is a royal pain.
As for taking extra people. Our camper sleeps 10 comfortably The rear bedroom besides having two full size beds. also has curtains to separate it from the rest of the camper, plus their own AC vents. Plenty of room for all. And light weight on top of it
