Hi Chris... Well, at that time I did not know the
difference between the 3 person westy zbed and the
passenger zbed. I call it a westy zbed because it is
made out of plywood and foam (like the westy 2 person
zbed), and the passenger one is a metal frame and
springs.

At that time when I went to your place, I wanted the
all grey carat interior. Dammed I loved that interior!
So much more practical for everyday use. I regret
selling that interior... I could have installed it in
my syncro...

Now after trying both, I know the westy zbed is more
comfy for sleeping, and the passenger zbed more comfy
for seating...
