I'm unsure of the exact dimensions of the upper bunk in the bobcat but I make it to be somewhere from 5'9 to 5'11 tall. At 5'11" that's only an inch shorter than I am. I'm wondering how many bobcat owners with the 48+ 28 bed actually sleep sideways rather than fore-aft as designed. If so, how well does that work? If the bed were acceptable to use sideways, the pull out could be shortened to 12" and leave more camper floor space avaiable. That would give you 71 X 60?? I'm thinking when we have a guest (3rd person) perhaps this would be an option but I'd like to know from Bobcat users whether this is realistic.
