Hello Everyone,

 

I just ordered a FWC Hawk (from Sean at Go Anywhere in Wisconsin) and have a question (probably not my last) about the dimensions of the bed before and after after sliding it out. I ordered the King Bed upgrade and presume that the quick sketch I made here accurately depicts the dimensions. Can anyone here confirm these are correct or point me to a more "official" set of numbers. I could not find the information anywhere myself.

Mine is a grandby and your dimensions are correct for what I have on mine. I just measured the part from start of cab to end of extension and got the additional 30" or so. Very rough measurements

We have a new Grandby with the king bed.  I just went out and measured the bed at 77" wide and 75" long.  It has a 47" x 77" cushion and four 14" x 38-1/2" cushions.  I don't know if the Hawk has a larger bed than our Grandby

We're debating getting the King bed upgrade also.  How is it?  Sleeping N->S has gotta be nice.  Any regrets?

Gotta be honest... Have not yet been out overnight in the camper. I have pulled the bed all the way out and tried it out. It seems really nice and is certainly spacious.

 

The Eclipse in Nebraska was our last camping adventure before my kids went back to school. We camped using our Roof Top Tent (on the pickup). Was hoping the FWC would be delivered in time... But it was not.

King size option is well worth it in my opinion. Plenty of room and no climbing over for the late night wake ups.

Isn't it a pain to always be making and unmaking the bed every night? We have the queen option and find ourselves pushing it in so that we can both sit at the table in the morning. Not a huge deal but a minor annoyance. I wish we had a few more inches of head room (taller pop up portion like the fleets) for easier maneuvering into and out of the bed area.

I don't mind the maneuvering. In the Grandby there is still enough room to sit at the table with the bed fully slide out.
