Just an idea for the future 2720SL and 3124KS models

Over the years... a couple of times I have seen ...where people try to figure out how to sleep two adults or two teens of different genders on the sofa bed.

I got an email today with a lot of cool inventions. When I saw this I thought something similar would be a cool option for a Trail Manor.

That's a really good idea; especially for those with kids or a group of guys/girls traveling together. Where did you find this sofa/bed? Looks like something from IKEA.

I've seen that, too. Wouldn't be optimal in the TM, due to weight and loss of storage, as well as loss of tables! The way that swings over would mean the wall-mounted tables would need to be reengineered.

As soon as I get my TM out of storage, I need to take a few measurements. I may have a bunk-bed solution, as long as the depth works out. I'll post here as soon as I know more...

It was in an email from a friend that was all about new inventions. It did not give credit to who sells it or the mfg.

I googled around and found that it is in the UK.

I do not know yet if it is sold in the US.

It has occurred to me that the heater would need to be relocated. There are trade off for anything to do with campers.

I found a blog about this Doc couch...lol...you need to see a shrink and lay on his couch if you buy one. Several threads said 6.800...a bit steep. Maybe the Chinese will make a knock off for 200.00 soon. This has been around since at least 2008. I wonder if a UK patent is in effect in the US.

Here is the blog and the threads which start stating the price is the second or third page.
