Thanks all.  I finally found a good picture (video actually) of the gaucho sleeper sofa:

After studying it, I don't think its going to be a good solution for us after all.  Talked to Hallmark and they seemed happy to tweak a regular dinette to fit our needs a little better so just going to go that route.  

 

build thread coming soon...

That looks nice.  I think you'd be very happy with a swing away type table mount like the Springfield http://www.springfie...way-table-mount or the Lagun http://svhotwire.com...able-bracket-2/  The table and straight vertical post can really be in the way for the couch layout since its kind of in the center of the camper.

thanks - great options on the table.  We are actually going to go the dinette route but have the long leg (against the side wall) built deeper than stock so my daughter can sleep/ nap on that side with the table up and slid out of the way.  That's the way our current camper is build and after looking at a bunch of different options, just decided to go that way.  May pursue one of the above table mounts for that.  Thanks!

Eddie - great to meet you out on West Side Road last weekend.  What are the odds?

 

Anyway, the camper is working very well for us and the Hallmark has met all of my expectations.

Vic!
It was great meeting you and your family as well! My wife was dumbfounded that we would run into someone I met online on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere!
Glad to hear that you love your Hallmark and we can't wait to pick ours up in a couple of months.
Also, thanks for the tip on the flowers! We were blown away with all the beauty. We stopped and had lunch on that sunny slope and just basked in the colors and sunshine!
I will do a complete write up hear shortly as soon as I can get my ducks in order.
