Oh wait, that would have slowed you down...

No sir. I had originally thought about doing that, but if I hinged it, I would have the back flip up as to make a couch. If you notice, I left the bottom open under the bed. This way we can slide our clothes and gear under the bed. One of the things I disliked about my popup was the storage under the seats. There was a lot of it, but you had to get up and remove everything on the seats to get under to it. With the under the bed storage, I can just reach under there and pull stuff out w/o having to stand up, or relocate my camping buddy to get to the storage.
Also, I think what is more important than storage, is easily accessible storage. Doesn't matter if you have a ton of storage if you have to take half the camper apart to get to it. I'll have storage above the counter, in the counter, above the bed, below the bed, and next to the bathroom. Storage won't be a problem.
I guess I could go back and hinge it later, but I really don't want to mess with hinges, and beds with cushions that have seams in the middle.
This is fun watching this thread, the speed is incredible! 
Building is *not* my favorite thing to do. I guess I enjoy it enough to do these projects, but I'm not hardcore enough to steam wood, or the inlay stuff. The people with the patience can do that. I'm one of those modern modular contemporary camper dudes. *ducks from flying bottles*
