Default 2417 widened for 2013

Quick FYI on the latest 2417. A second 2417 model (the "Standard") is being offered next to the Sport. The Standard is widened from the current 7'1" to 7'7" like the rest of the line. Will add some weight, but the important gain is that the king bed (currently 78"x72") goes to 78" square. This means 6-footers won't have to sleep sideways and have the person-crawling-over-person situation like most of us know and love. The Car Show in Colo Spgs, CO will have one beginning next week. We're stopping by next week to take a look. Just passing along the info...

Edit: In the 2012 version, it looks like the 78" is length-wise, so 6-footers shouldn't have to climb over each other even in the 78"x72" bed. Anyhow, as long as it doesn't add too much weight, I'd think the changes will be welcome. More to follow...
