J.,

Howdy neighbor! One can only assume the previous owner gave you a thorough walkthrough? Rumor has it...he wrote the book.

Very nice work on your personalizations. We did a similar mod to the bed - converting it to a convertible daybed with end table in our 178. Great minds do think alike!

Enjoy!

Hello Our family bought techntreks 2010 171 over the winter.
Been busy looking at all the Mods on here and decided to do a few
to make the 171 our own. (Wife did all the mods - proud of her carpentry and decorating skills)

Here's her post:

First was to convert queen bed into a "U"Sofa/Queen Bed
So to have more indoor hangout space on those rainy cold trips.

Moved cabinet door from front to side by plumbing, made storage under the bed
larger for more outdoor storage space 36"x74". plumbing and water heater bins now 25x25

Before:



Renovations:







FOAM MATTRESS/cushions: (ebay - medium 5" dense)(walmart twin fitted sheets and s,q,k pillow cases - sorry no time to iron lol)






more mods a coming......

OK, I could not use suction cups on my wall material and was looking for a way to hang things. I'll try command strips and test them under driving conditions. Are they "Velcro?

It's a fastening system from 3M. It is an adhesive strip used on hooks and other devices of various sizes to make hanging up things easier!
