I wonder how hard it would be to mount the cab to slide out rails (per Kaye) and then use an inflatable seal like those used by Newell Coach and the airlines for their doors. We could make it on a contact switch so that when the cab is released it automatically deflates and then once the cab gets locked back in place, it inflates the seal to seal off the cab again. Obviously you would not want to do this when it is raining or snowing outside!
You know what, this may just work afterall. The one thing the European trucks have over the Argosy is that they have a lower bumper height requirement and the cabs sit a bit lower which leaves more room for the upper bunk and lowers the COG.
