Biggest negative is small holding tanks.
A great model I'm sure BUT the OP clearly wants not only bunk beds but a bed of her own that doesn't have to be set up, not a dinette that does. That Coachmen Apex Nano 185BH she expressed interest in meets this requirement, as well as having decent sized 30 gal holding tanks, the same size tanks I have on my Coachmen Freedom Express 192RBS. I still think it's worth weighing her Pathfinder to determine exactly what it's real world payload capacity is, then plugging those numbers into the towing calculator I sent her.
Moving up to the Jayco 174BH model would include a short queen in the front that doesn't need set up. At 85" wide this would present a little less frontal area than the Apex Nano 185BH. According to Jayco's web site the 2017 174BH has increased black/gray tank capacity to 20g each.
