    Genius! Would you sell something like this? I’m not a woodworker.

    Do you happen to know how big the sofa is from arm to arm Thinking we would take it out and put in a trifold.

      56". There seems to be a lot of tri-fold sofas at 55". I just can never tell from the pictures whether the cushions are attached or not. I would want the seatbelts to be able to be passed through to be safe and legal for the extra 2 passengers. I would prefer a tri-fold sofa that could be properly attached and the seatbelts usable. That was my first thought

      What does it look like? Could you post picture when you have it in? Did you find a 56”?

      Thor has already the sofa bed. They installed it in the vegas 24.1, same size. I think people just should try order it from Thor and replace it themselves or by third party or dealership.

    Have same. Please please please be very careful with stove. Don’t let any child or young adult use it. We cooking for decades on gas stove at home & barbecue & NEVER had this occur. Ever.
    It blew a huge encompassing flame up first time used it. It singed arm hair & flame closed in on body up past head the flame just blew upwards solid 18 inches. Could feel heat go right up face to past head, touching. Cooking on the two burners so it was huge. To us we found it very unsafe. God is good & we were talking about God when it happened. We thank God that the flame did not light shirt & long hair on fire. We felt the glory of God that the arm hairs were tiny, gritty balls on the skin & the encompassing flame felt right next to skin but it did not consume. Glory to God. But still felt it very important to report & warn so no kids stand close to their parents when they are cooking or cook themselves. In our view it is unsafe. Don’t let any youth or adult cook on it is my recommendation & warning. I hope Thor issues a warning. That is why I spent the time to report it. But it felt like they didn’t care enough or want any expense perhaps that would come with warning or changing.
    We haven’t used it since. Not worth it. Don’t cook around anybody if you do use it. If someone had stood next, they would have been engulfed also.
    We believe it is unsafe. We use the air fryer & microwave. Safer. We will get an Instapot or slow cooker eventually, just not a lot of room. We are researching both. Haven’t used an Instapot before.
    We reported stove to Thor (they didn’t seem to care much trying to find a way to blame user) so then we reported it to the government safety because I don’t know how I didn’t catch fire with the flame being so full. Glory of God.
    We have same 2024 Thor Compass with same colors. It is very nice but much is falling apart very quick. Get out & USE it so you know & can get it fixed! The cabinets split in back. Came like that but inspector & we missed it.
    Run your hand underneath cabinets a little less than inch from front of bedroom (& all) cabinets. You cannot see it unless you are sleeping & looking up. & run your hands underneath all the way down to make sure not split. Ours came this way without putting anything in the cabinets. Found it a few weeks in before putting anything in cabinets.
    The sink seal also comes off fast & sink drops. The water in the shower won’t stay hot for long with the tankless. Goes cold. Thor customer service said it was water pressure but this was at dealership camp area & another RV park. I don’t think they were answering right question with that answer. This is what happens when we have found right temp & showering. I think they answered thinking we could not get right temp.
    Shower is lowest point they said by the way when you need to drain it when sanitizing.
    According to Thor, you do not have a bypass by the way-that was taken out. Know this when you are sanitizing or winterizing. We haven’t winterized yet. We have a list of items that already need fixing since buying in April. The air conditioning always goes offline. We have not made it back to where we came from (Pacific Northwest). We’ve had many difficulties, including wood blocks in the grey tank feed which didn’t allow us to close it. Try to get something to reach up & pull it down & then grab it by hand. I wouldn’t do anything drastic to fix. Just coax it & hope it’s not bigger than opening. We like it better than motel & hotel rooms for sure. But Thor has been horrible to call & try to deal with/ many knowledgeable & rude customer service people. After hours is far worse! Just don’t call. They hang up & don’t call you back. It’s beyond awful!
    Cleaner-wise they want you to use 409 or Pine Sol on the list you have to call in. To get. The manuals are awful.
    We like the way it drives. The back is very cold when air conditioned & the front not. In a way it works if one person likes it cold & one doesn’t. We haven’t gotten TVs working though we bought the Starlink equip. You can start & stop the subscriptions supposedly.
    The charger also in couch atm worked for a while but doesn’t much now. Maybe cuz we have newest iPhone? Not sure why.
    Please let us know anything you have found out. Again can’t tell you how important it has been using it for a few months & finding out all of these problems. We have to drive about 150 miles to get it fixed at an approved Thor mechanic dealership. Haven’t done that yet.
    The Ford driving part is what we live. Love the lights when turning at night. The center blower up front on right side of driver went out. Air conditioning.
    Thought we’d share in case this helps you. Use it & get it in shop in the first year. Love the bed idea. We have same.
    Do you know if there is a plug in any of the compartments in back or below outside? I know there are lights. Ours is full since we have to travel back to our state & it has our belongings. We have one plug on outside. Starlink says it has to be plugged in inside. Figuring out how to do this.
    Why it didn’t come with TVs working & some internet card on top we could reload & use we can’t understand. Then we started dealing with Thor & understood. Thor needs better CEO that can give us a real manual & customer service agents that know what they are doing on our model. One couldn’t even tell me where the generator was, after the night Thor emergency guy said to find it. I had to keep calling back until they said we didn’t need to find it after all. It’s below in back we finally learned but shouldn’t have to go there.
