Storyteller

I find myself drawn more and more to the Storyteller Overlander philosophy of the "bathroom". I think they call their shower system the halo or something like that. It stores in the overhead bin....

Might be antithetical

There might be a perception that a longer wheelbase has a greater chance of getting hung up more easily in the type of terrain the Revel demographic is looking to traverse. The short wheelbase is...

Jgrim, I can definitely see the appeal of the rear bath and open layout. I just think the way they did it in the Boldt is no where near as intuitive as the Travato. They put a wardrobe at the "head"...
