Hi All-Amy (the wife in this duo) here-As we're sifting through the myriad of choices while in the decision process of purchasing our first RV, we'd truly love your input on a few things, if possible. Pros or cons of (1) Free-standing dinette/chairs as opposed to the more traditional secured table/booth. I would think the traditional offers the ability of more people being able to use the table simultaneously, additional sleeping area if it can be converted to a bed, safer since it doesn't shift around while driving, and it appeals-maybe- to more of a nostalgic rv experience. The free-standing, I would think, offers more floor space in order to utilize air mattresses for additional sleeping arrangements and versatility since it could even be moved outside for outdoor dining. ??? (2) The rv entrance location either in front of the passenger seat or behind. I would guess that the "in front" version would be convenient for the passenger if they want to leave the rv but inconvenient when they don't but others have to climb over them in order to get out. However, "in front" would probably make the living area feel larger??? And last, but not least, (3)would you consider having laundry appliances high on your "wish list"; and, if so, separate washer and dryer or do the combos work fairly well? I'm sorry for the lengthy list, but this will probably be the rv we will keep for the rest of our lives and we want to be sure to make it right. (Later, I'll probably be hitting you all up for input on traveling with a dog as well as health insurance if you rv full-time-I was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 43, just turned 52 yesterday-so keeping my fingers crossed-but health care & health insurance while living as a (hopefully) full time rv'er within the next few years is a somewhat daunting thought for me, so I'd welcome any thoughts on those topics as well). As I sit, writing this, in my living room right now, I so envy (in a friendly way) all of you who are so lucky right now to be reading this from your rv!!! We really hope to be out there soon!!!!
