Introduction and a Vegas 25.1 question

The older configuration does seem too cumbersome, we were thrilled when they made the change for the 2016.

We LOVE the 25.1 model and feel like we get way more coach because of its unique floor plan. We travel a lot so the ability to use the back room on the road is huge. It's my wife's office, it's a place where the kids can go to watch TV, listen to their own music (this cannot be understated), or play wii. Last weekend it served as a changing room for marching band members and it often serves as a changing room for swimsuits etc when we're at the campground. With the mattress topper it is a very comfortable bed. There is no other way that we know of to get this much functionality out of a 27 ft coach. I get that older folks will want nothing to do with putting up and taking down a bed, but for now and many years to come this coach will serve us well.

Let me know if the link to the video doesn't work, you may have to copy and paste it into your browser. If it doesn't work I'll post pictures.

Nicely done! Even though we don't own a Vegas/Axis, I enjoyed seeing how the rear room transformed from living to sleeping. We actually considered a Vegas during our search, but found it just a bit too tight for our needs.

You guys did a great job on the video! Is it on Youtube? I know I go there often looking for "help" videos.

Thanks for taking the time to do it, and for posting it!

Hi, do you still have a video? The link is not working. Thanks.

I just looked at the video so the link worked for me. We just got a used 2015
25.1 and am trying to figure out how to utilize the bed also. Ours is hinged like a tri-wallet with the seat folding out and over leaving back-side up, then the third section folds out so the entire surface is wood and the rear cushion. A folding bar under the cushion and two legs under the third section fold down for support. When I put down the two side cushions plus a third one the dealer got thinking it would solve the problem, there is no clear configuration that works well. After seeing this video I think the solution is the additional mattress on top of everything.
This forum has been a big help already and I just signed on - thanks everyone!
