Bunks in motorhomes

Newmar is the only manufacturer that does custom like that..but be prepared for the upcharge.

Fleetwood had a really nice floor plan with the discovery 42A. The rear bedroom had a full bath between it and the master. I believe the model was discontinued for 2013

First you'll have to state which manufacturers you'd consider. By saying prevost are you seeking a luxury manufacturer?

I provided a couple to consider. Newmar, Monaco, Tiffin... Yes, converters who convert Prevost shells seem they've been flexible in the past. If Prevost is the only solution, I would consider about a 2007 model. Thanks.

Newmar would be a serious consideration. It's a very quality product. Thanks for your input.

Dan, That's a very interesting floorplan for sure. It must be a keeper for the one's who bought it as there aren't even any for sale used. The only kind I've liked happen to be in a Prevost, but I wanted to make sure I'm not missing any out there. Thanks for your suggestion.

Foretravel in Nacogdoches,Texas has a 2012 model IH 45 on their lot that has bunks.
It is stock number 6550p.
Take a look at their sight under preowned
Foretravels are excellent coaches

WOW. They did a great job on that one!!! I haven't considered Foretravel yet I know they build a great product. Thank you for your help.

At a lower price level, Winnebago has a specialty vehicles division that builds mobile offices, command posts, mobile clinics, and accessible motorhomes. The division can build whatever will fit one of a number of different shells they use. When I was looking at them a few years ago, they were building mostly on entry level A-gasser shells, and non-slide Cs, for accessible RVs.

At the other end of the scale, there is Newell in Miami, Oklahoma. Every build is a custom design. AFAIK, everything building now is on their big 45' platform, quite expensive, legendary quality.

Then there are the coach converters outside the RV industry, producing bunkhouse designs of many different capacities for the entertainment industry, and other businesses that require employees to sleep in transit. Not all Prevost, converters work also with other shells and chassis available in North America.

Similarly, almost every build on a heavy duty straight truck chassis is custom, to the initial buyers specific needs. We've had chemistry labs, seismic acquisition and processing centers built on HDTs, in addition to field housing for employees. Hardly ever put something into a motorcoach shell or onto a RV chassis. Sometimes what you need for a life on the road is outside the box defined as RV industry.

What they will do now is to build basically that interior configuration o. The American Revolution, just with more power and more up-market fittings. That floor plan is 42T if I recall correctly. I was (this) close to pulling the trigger on the discovery last year, and will look hard at the revolution if business continues to improve.
