Hybrid with rear living space?

Has anyone seen a hybrid with a rear (or front) living space arrangement? I've only seen 'normal' TT or 5th wheels with that style of floorplan.

    If you find one currently in production let us know, I'm curious.

    New to the forum here (and I know this is a really old post), but we recently purchased a 2007 Trail-Lite 17' single-bed hybrid (expands out the front). Perfect for my wife and I as the back of the camper is an entire wall of storage.

    (Not entirely what the OP is looking for either, just thought someone might be interested).

  • the only thing close to what you're asking about, was a hybrid with a rear "porch" area. had an inflatable bed but could be used as a seating area on the bed platform.

    but there's NEVER been any hybrid with a typical rear living room area and a front tent end.
  • You've surely seen RVs with rear living space designs, bed in the front, chairs and sofa in the rear, right? They aren't that uncommon.

    Something like this, but with a front tip out bed, you know like hybrids have, instead of the fixed bed.



    I'd think you could have essentially the same floorplan but the overall length would be maybe 7 feet shorter without the fixed bed at the front.
