How did the Roadtrek SS Ideal with the rear slide-out sell? Not well!! Sure,with LFS SS you can walk around the rather narrow bed-4-two with the slide-out extended and bed down. Yes, the rear bathroom is great and more cupboard space too. The fridge is small:?
We have found that mid-ship beds,pull-out,pull-down or gaucho-type simply get in the way unless you simply get them ready and go to bed. With the REAR electric sofa you can fold it down and keep the bed made up and still get around the RV including going to the bathroom without wiggling around a pulled down bed in the middle of the RV. The problem with the rear slideout on the Roadtrek SS was that when the slideout was pulled in you couldnt use the table and were really cramped back there doing anything. In a Sprinter, clearly, the electric fold down couch is more practical. You can nap on it too. With a narrow RV like the Sprinter, it seems odd to have the bed anywhere except at the back end of the unit.
