The layout
is almost exactly like the Golby Twin Bed/DryBath, with
barrel chairs and a pull-out table in place of the dinette.
Also, a TV storage console has been added.
|
|
 |
TV is in the center console, folded down. Couch on the left, across from the eating area, makes a nice bed for two. The cabinet doors are Formica, and very nearly only Formica. They are "hollow core" style, with Formica inside and out, for light weight. The coach only scales at 10,700 pounds, and that is with two roof airs and a pod!

 |
The TV hinges up and locks for viewing. The TV console also contains "woofers" for the Sony sound system. An 80-watt power amplifier, a 10-CD changer (in the driver's seat pedestal), a tape player, AM and FM tuners, and plenty of controls to get all this good sound balanced and distributed. A pair of Jensen speakers in the bedroom are driven from up front, too.
|
|
 |
The "Dakota Digital" instruments include a moving bar tachometer, a percentage readout on fuel, oil pressure, coolant (engine) temperature in degrees, odometer, trip odometer, and indicators for high beam and turn signals. The readouts are bright enough to read very well in daylight.
|
|
 |
The leather covered steering wheel is available from Jim Bounds at the Coop, and probably from Alex Sirum.
|
|
 |
Above the cockpit, sunroofs with roller shades from Wal-Mart!
|
|
|
|
Passenger side single bed, with foot-room under the shirt-closet. The combination microwave and broiler oven is under the cooktop.
|
|
 |
Driver side single bed. I moved the thermostat to the shirt closet wall to get it away from the cold outside wall influence.
|
|
 |
Floor lighting (seen here in the sleeping area, between the twin beds), is accomplished with "twinkie" or strip lighting. There is also strip lighting above all the windows, other than the front.
|
|
 |
Kitchen area, with brush finish aluminum backsplash. Cold water has under sink filter. |
|
 |
Under the four-burner cooktop is a combination microwave/broiler oven. You can even bake biscuits and they brown nicely!
|
|
 |
Instead of a dinette, there are two Barrel chairs on swivels and slides, and a folding tabletop. Adjustable as the chairs are, they are well suited for both living area and dining area use.
|
|
 |
Looking toward the bedroom, kitchen on the left, bath on the right. There is a nifty little tilt-out dirty clothes hamper under the foot of the passenger side bed. The bed table has both a roomy drawer and a storage cabinet underneath.
|
|
 |
Above the 3/way Norcold, the designer/builder had installed a lighted display area containing four crystal decanters that contained a variety of alcoholic beverages. Since we are tee-totallers, we thought it would be an excellent place to display pictures of our two grandsons, Ryan and Alex!
|
|
 |
A brushed aluminum backsplash in the bathroom reflects the "twinkie" lights for soft illumination.
|
|
 |
Overhead in the bath, both a skylite and a flourescent provide bright lighting. An original 6-inch vent fan provides plenty of ventilation.
|
|
 |
The separate shower is just behind the shower curtain. Since we are over the rear wheel well here, the shower has a seat, or bench! There is also a removable clothes rod, so the shower can be used for hanging long items that would wrinkle in the "shirt closets" over the foot of the beds.
