I've seen most of the front-bunk Class A gas and diesel models, and was part of the roll-out initial build of the Venetian with a 'seat belt' system let-down front bunk on it's FRONT entry diesel model - but all of these are somewhat problematic when the bunk is down, for sure. It's doable, but trying to then use the front driver/passenger seats for anything realistic is out of the question. The Venetian even had the problem of ENTRY into the coach once the bed was down.... not a good idea in my book, but might work for some who really need the extra sleeping space, and don't mind having to almost 'crawl' to get out or in the coach when it is.

Our 2015 Georgetown XL had a 'fold down' front bunk. It might have taken up a little less 'head room', but then was not nearly as usable as the typical 'electric' Queen sized front bunks that THOR uses. We even use ours now as 'storage', modifying the 'stops' to give us about 12-16 inches of usable space, even when driving. That's a LARGE area for storage, especially if it's either clothing, blankets, or even pots/pans, kitchen items, etc.
Of course, with the mid-entry diesel, like we have, this is possible.
