I really like the floorplan on this unit VR1 Model 310BHS, but I am concerned about the shape of the bunks. Does anyone have one, or have you seen it in person? Can a 5'10" adult be comfortable on one of these bunks? If anyone has pics of a person on the bed, or even just dimensions that would be great.

Also are there any issues with using a WD hitch on this type of V nose trailer?

Making the likely assumption that the picture is close to scale the bunk appears to be 86% as long as the queen bed. If any of this is true the bunks appear to be about 5' 8" +/- I wouldn't bet the farm on this but I'm pretty sure (I've looked at these units) they are a bit shorter than an "adult" bed. If you look at the picture it appears that the bunks are roughly the same size as the dinet. What do you think?

I was also trying to scale off the diagram, but I am not positive they are that precise. Actual may differ from the marketing material a bit.

We own a VR1 and the nose section of the TT is a large bathroom. I have not measured those walls, but if you look at the front bath floor plan, you have only a sink and a shower along one wall. I would say that the 5'8" measurments is pretty close if not a little short.

As far as the hitch goes, I use a Equalizer hitch and it works just fine...........The wall of the nose of the trailer extends out a bit beyond the A frame, so some hitches would not work on this.

We are very happy overall with the VR1.
