Ok, So I'm not 6'2" 210, but almost..  I'm closer to 190.  I bought a 2013 178 last year.  I sleep in it as many weekends as I can.  I sleep on the bed just fine.  I can't think of a time when I've every stretched my body head to toe to sleep on my back.  Who does that?  Shorter people maybe.  When its a tight quarters, I know to put a pillow under my knees or sleep on my side.  Problem solved.  Shower isn't really a problem.  I use it.  The height isn't nearly as disconcerting as the fact that I'm showering with the john.  

Simply put, if you're buying something for a replcement for tent camping, it does that job just fine - even for people of above average height :)  Heck, the dude I bought it from was taller than me!  I even remember asking him if he was ever cramped.  His answer?  "Yep."  We laughed.  I gave him the cash and that was that.  I can tell you this, of my short list of complaints with this product, the size isn't one of them.

Thank you, that is really what I envision. I lived on a sailboat for 4 years, so I'm not unaccustomed to tight quarters.
