Hello,
I am not exactly in your position but I recently moved from a 27' Winnebago to a 22' shorty.
I lived in the RV for ten years and although I liked the roominess, I could not take it anywhere....

Solar

I put two 100 watt panels on today.
I have three 12 volt deep cycle batteries under the bed.
That should be enough for my needs.

It's 14' by 7.5' .
Cozy.
I have a full bed. A smaller bed would mean more space but less storage underneath.
Plus, my dog is a bed hog so I need that size.

I will install a door to cover the hole.
