Shorter Class A with 80" long dinette or couch?

I have been researching floorplans, looking for a shorter Class A with an 80" or longer dinette or couch for a second bed.

The Coachmen Pursuit 32WC below is the shortest I have found so far. It has a 90" long dinette and an 85" long couch, which give some nice sleeping options. It is 32'6" long.

Are you aware of any shorter floorplans that have an 80" or longer dinette or sofa? I'm looking for something new or maybe a few years old.

Thank you.

Class A

    Just what I was going to say. The drop down bunks in the newer class A coaches look pretty nice. Long and wide, and a single smooth surface rather than small dinette cushions and pieces. As I look to move to a class A someday, a bunk like this is a must have.


    Thank you. We have been looking at those too. Some do have nice-sized drop down bunks, and that is an option. I'm still hoping to find something that has the 80" long dinette or sofa on the main floor to avoid the rickety ladder climb.

    Thank you for that insight. You are right, and this hadn't occured to me despite the fact that I have looked at dozens of floor plans, and the fifth wheel we just sold had a bed in slide. Thank you for adding that to the things to be aware of list!

    Many cabover bunks in class C's are nice and long. I would imagine that drop down bunks in class A's over the cockpit area would likewise be decently long. It might be something to consider or investigate.
