I am looking at a WC or maybe the lightest AF.
I have some general questions about them.

Can you make the WC's comfortable in temps as low as freezing and as high as mid 90's?

How big is the generator bay? Will two Honda 2000W's fit? or a Yamaha 2400W?

Are any of you using the 2500W Onan? is it noisy? How long does propane last running it?

Is the Coleman 9k unit large enough for 90-95 degree weather?

How hot does the bunk area above the cab get? Or is it ducted?

Where do you store fuel for the generator?

Where do you store your tools?

Where do you store your lawn chairs, ice chests and other gear?

Sorry for all of the questions.

Do you have a pic of how you mounted this?

Anyone have a dimension of the dinette when it's made into a bed? How tall of a guy can sleep there straight legged?


On which model / brand of camper? (AF / WC, etc)


WC 850


It's 78", I posted it above.

We didn't go for the roll over in part because we like looking out the windows.

Someone in this group might have the dimensions on the 850 dinette.

I think the with the Wolf Creek dinettes being U shaped, they are going to be longer than the AF dinettes, or at least in the 811 AF


Didn't know that they had a Facebook Group. Thanks

Opinions on rollover sofa vs dinette for both eating and sleeping? Is sofa better for sleeping but dinette better for eating?

We were considering the rollover sofa but there is no storage under the sofa. We store several items in the drawer under the one seat of the dinette and water and assorted beverages in the compartment under the other side of the dinette.

I store my small tools under the rear seat of my double cab in a tool bag.
Lawn chairs and hiking and paddling gear go on the back seat of the double cab.


Thanks, I will look into the Rotopax mounts

I'll be sleeping on the dinette this week end. My sister and I are taking a trip together -- her first TC experience and my first on the dinette. At 6'4" and 250 lbs. I should be able to give you an honest evaluation. Thank goodness I only have to spend two nights on it! I'll have my sleeping bag and Camprest pad as backup. I don't mind sleeping outside under the stars.

1/3 of the roll over base is the heater. The other 2/3rd should be storage.

We thought about the roll over as it looks nice, frees up some isle room as the dinette is straight, but you lose the under storage and that was a deal breaker. I can measure mine tomorrow.
