I just made a change to my order. After really thinking about the layout (which I love) the bed position which is not walk around was worring me. It is really going to stink when either my wife or myself (I am sure I would get the wall side of the bed) need to get up in the middle of the night and I have to climb over her to get out of bed.

The 28' is almost identical, other than it has a walk around bed, additional cabinets in the bedroom and larger closet in the bathroom.

Glad I made this change before the chassis was stretched.

I will post the updated floor plan soon.

The first time I looked at your 26' floorplan I
knew we couldn't get that one...that wall bed was
a killer for us also. What will your total length
be now? Also, what will your wheelbase be after
they stretch the chassis. Thanks and have a nice
day.
 
The overall will be around 36' to 38', depending on how they cut the sleeper off. We had a idea on how it would go, but until they dig into it we won't know for sure. Actually, that work should be done this week. They gave me the wheelbase number this morning at work and I can't remember what I wrote down. On Monday I will update this post with the number.

I also added a DBS-3000 satellite system to the order, I figured I would probably add it later so might as well as get it done now.

The factory figures the rear wheel placement from the back of the cab, aft. The rear wheels will be 227" from the back of the cab with a 28' motorhome. All of my measurements before I sent it where with the sleeper, but my best guess the actual wheel base will be close to 289"
