Mike...
I really like your design - I think everything's coming along very nicely with it.

That's why I'm sharing this stuff early, to make sure we don't miss stuff like this.
You guys are my design review team...
And I think you're right... it's too low...
So where do we go from here?

And , we build for our needs ... I for one have Never gone camping so I can cook big meals ...
Note: If you live in an area that never rains , then build whatever you want and don’t worry about a thing ... A Luxury we do not have here...

If you want a hot meal you don't have to dig for a box with the stove in it, the box with the bread in it, the cooler, it's all right there.... ready for use with a simple lift of the hatch.
The foamie for me is traveling fast and save money on hotel and restaurant expenses without sacrificing speed and time that a larger trailer creates. If I did not have the option of a galley to deploy in a moments notice I would be tempted to stop and eat at a restaurant for convenience. Yes I know how my mind works....
