Need recommendations TC with 1st floor bed.

[realter]

Looking for a TC with a dinette bed at least 6' long in a TC that doesn't extend past the rear bumper. I realize I might have to get a truck with an 8' bed. These old knees having trouble climbing into the over cab bed. Thanks.

How do you plan on using it as it only has 20gals of water and a 7.5gal gray tank.

I've never used my shower. Never drank from the water tank. Actually always stayed in campgrounds. And usually it's just me, wife hates it. Lol.

That's why I asked, so in your case as long as you can deal with the small interior it seems like a good choice.

Northstar Vista is right up your alley. You've even got plenty of truck for it according to your profile, with payload to spare.

I dont't know if your looking used or new? But my lance 920 has a nice folding sofa that's 6' long. This is my 3rd TC and buy far my favorite. Lots of storage, nice folding couch for a bed and a large bathroom/ shower(compared to my other TCs).

Look for models that have a front dinette . Alaskan still makes one , probably some others .

Those were Rayzr by Travel Lite. One would be providing a disservice by recommending anything by that horrid company. I was hesitant to even mention them for fear the OP might go looking at them.

What were those new units that didn't have cabovers we were discussing recently?

Seems like a perfect fit here.

Check out the older Lance 300 or Squire 3000. They are 8' campers with the same dining arrangements as my 880. We don't pack the dinette table thus giving us a settee arrangement that converts to a single 6' bed. If we packed the table then it would convert to a 6' double bed.

Wolf Creek 850 dinette bed is very long at 78" (6'6"). The same layout is available in a 8' or 6-1/2' bed configuration. I'm 6'3" so I feel your pain with small spaces.

My old KIT has a dinette bed near 6' long, but she's an 11' camper and definitely extends past the rear bumper, so an 8' would definitely be needed.

Not knowing what all amenities you might want, but I can say this: My 6'-3" frame fit on a NorthStar TC-800 portion of the dinette.

several guys I shoot with had there knees replaced and wish they did it years ago :).
