Looking for TT under 30 feet with 60x80 queen

[campersmd]

I'm 6'8", so I need a real queen bed, not an RV queen. I've wasted alot of time with dealers who think they are the same. I have a 2500HD truck so I can tow much bigger than I need. I have found plenty of very nice TT that are 34-36 feet, but there are only two of us.

What is the shortest TT you are aware of that has a residential sized (60x80) queen bed?


TIA!

Trailer mattresses suck in general so find a trailer where you can upgrade the mattress to a full queen. My trailer came with a short queen but I knew there was room for a full queen so after a couple trips we purchased the full queen, I was planning on replacing the plywood that the mattress sets on to fit the queen but after placing the mattress on the platform I found the little bit hanging over the end of the original plywood didn't matter so I left it alone. My feet still hang over and touch the end wall in the bedroom but when one is 6'10" one is used to the feet hanging off the mattress.

For head room either get used to ducking or look at toy haulers as they run tall inside, about anything else you will have to duck. I looked at 5th's but found the upper 5th wheel part of the trailer was to short for me to stand straight, wouldn't be a big deal if it was just the bedroom but most have the bathroom in the 5th part which makes taking a shower a pain.

Li'l Snoozy at 17' long has a real queen bed (sideways orientation, not walk-around). That just might be the smallest.

OK, rexlion is the winner but I should of specified I needed 6'8" of headroom too. Thanks for the good ideas. I looked at all of them.

My wife and I just took delivery of a Coachmen Freedom Express 236BHS,27ft long with a 60x80 walk around queen bed. The mattress is foam and very comfortable.

If there is 5 inches of space beyond the RV short queen mattress(60"x75"), then a standard queen(60"x80") will fit just fine. That is what I did for my TT. I also replaced the supporting 3/8" plywood with a 5" longer piece but didn't really have to. To improve your situation even more, Place a bollard or piece of foam in front of the mattress(under the pillows) to extend the length even more if you have room.

I was going to suggest this. I have an East/West bed in a slide out that actually required a short mattress to fit when the slide is in but the manufacture did give a foam piece that matched the height of the mattress so that once the slide was out the mattress could be pulled down a bit and the foam block placed at the head under where the pillows go to make it full length. Just have to remember to take the foam block back out and slide the mattress all the way onto the bed platform before bringing the slide back in.

I didn't like the mattress that came with the RV so I bought a memory foam mattress from amazon and just cut off the bottom to make it fit the shorter size needed to bring in the slide, then add the cutoff to the top under the pillows when I want the full length. The foot end hangs over the bed platform about 5 inches but only holds my feet so it's not noticeable when sleeping on it. If you do this you might be able to even make a longer option work for you, assuming you need the space when a slide is used. If you have the room you may just do as above and throw the full size mattress on the platform and be done. Then you can look for other options that you might like about a trailer if the bed size can be fixed.

The 29QBS has a full size walk around queen. It was a little bigger than I wanted, but the 26BHS with the short queen wouldn't work for me. This is on the upper end of what you want... but it has what you need.

That's a tent

Not the bigger ones, e.g. X254

My wife & I were wanting a full sized queen bed (not an RV queen) & one we could walk around. We wanted it to be on the small size as well.

We found what we wanted in a Lance 1985. The full sized queen bed is just what we wanted & can be accessed from both sides; another want fullfilled. Being somewhat lighter than other rigs, we looked at, we can easily tow it with our Ford F-150.

Our daughter & grandson were able to spend a four nights trying out our new rig. Plenty of room for them on the spacious dinette/bed. We were all impressed with the roominess of the layout, the size of the dinette, the roomy shower & spaciousness of the bath & it many cabinet & drawers, etc. The quality of the toilet and it effectiveness.

We relished the spaciousness we found in the trailer, the bath is very roomy. Largest of any Lance, counting the much larger units.

The trailer is 23' 4" Tongue to Bumper with a Dinette Slide.

Lance 1985 Specs 2015 1/2 models, our is a earlier 2015, more like the 2014s. Wardrobe is not the same, no front window on ours.

There are other models closer to 30' as well with full queen beds.

We have a KZ Sportsmen Classic 170---19' long. The bed is a 60X80 queen, but has something like 12" left over that we throw our overnight bags into. I have often thought of switching out to a california Queen 60X84 as the legnth will easily fit. You can see the extra space on the photo below.

Our 22 footer had a rv queen. We bought a full queen and put in in the trailer with no problem. It only sticks out about 4 inches beyond the platform.
