Yes your question does ring a bell. I was the original poster of this exact question back when it was the Livin Lite forum. The thread is still here, you just have to access it on the archive section. Yes the mod that was mentioned in expanding the bed as said would make it harder to maneuver around, but then again it's just designed pretty much as a tent upgrade. Just to get you off the ground. If you are worried about wanting a lot of room, get a 30' camper. I like the 6.0 because like you said the simplicity. We don't hang out in our camper except for sleep. We spend our time camping actually in the great outdoors. We don't stay inside our camper and watch tv like most do. You could also put a small step stool by the parent bed and access it through the "emergency" escape if your worried about climbing over kids to get to bed. Hope this helps
