I hope these have more room for sleeping upstairs than my 73 VW Safare
camper did.  It was cozy, to say the least.

The trouble with a hightop is that they're BIG BIG BIG all the time, and the
trouble with a westy-type poptop  is that it provides no additional space
when it's closed up. I think that half-popper looks like a compromise
between the two. Though judging by the pictures, it doesn't look like it has
a top bunk-- just storage spaces.
