It’s interesting that in most RV photos they place cushions symmetrically, which leaves cushion joints/seams at or near shoulders and hips — something we avoid. Seat cushions are often about 2-ft along bed length, while backrest cushions are closer to 1-ft (making total bed length around 6 feet).

You are 100% right...no one shows it in the layout that you did. This makes so much sense!

Hi, just found out the dinette bed measurement - 75x33. Am picking up my 2009 Fourwinds 19g in a few weeks - the owner sent me these measurements. Hope it helps.

They seem pricey for what you get.
That is, new Four Winds 22’ models with a rear bed and full bath (vs the 19g wet bath) are generally the same price.

Thats what we were going to buy until we realized we could buy the 23 cm for almost the same price we bought 23 glad we did the single rear wheels looks like it would sway on interstate.

Existing Single Rear Wheel E-350 has a track width listed at 72.1 inches.

Typical Transit Dual Rear Wheel chassis has a track width listed at 65.7 inches.

In addition, SRW chassis of similar overall width allow rear leaf springs to be set further apart for added roll resistance. Should have greater stability.

When designed properly, I’d take SRW over DRW pretty much any time with very few exceptions.
