American Cruiser bed/couch issue

[Dave R]

Hey folks,

I put this under the general category, but thought posting this issue here might also be a good idea.

We just acquired a 2000 American Cruiser RE 2000X. The color glossy brochure that came with it shows a queen bed converted from the couch that folds down/slides out? and meets up with the fold down seats from the dinette across the aisle. Our issue is the "couch" is 30" wide and is solidly attached to plywood below and isn't going anywhere.

We're guessing it's been modified by someone (probably a single camper) who didn't want or need a queen bed and was happy to sleep on the quasi twin while leaving the dinette set up full time.

Unless this was originally intended as two separate beds that came from the manufacturer like this. Has anyone seen this?

We're brainstorming for ways to deconstruct it and make it convertible to fill the 14" gap across the aisle creating a larger bed.

Anyone with knowledge about these would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave
