I prefer the weekender layout in most ways.  I use a Coleman stove for
cooking at the campsite and a cooler full of ice for refrigeration duties,
so the fridge/stove combo on a full Westy would be superfluous for my needs.

One thing I like about full Westies is the extra storage space next to the
rear bench seat.  Also, I like the front table and the swivel seats.
Otherwise, I like mine.  More open space, a nice big fold-out table, and a
rear cabinet, but with a full-size rear bed.
