our aproach is completely different
we dont have a motor home, we do have a lwb semi hitop transit van.
when we want a tin tent for a couple of nights away back of the van gets cleared , except for basic tools and and all the "essential" stuff that lives under the seats... snowchains, jump leads, hydraulic jack etc.
what goes in is the basic camping gear
mattress and bedding
gas bottles and 2 burner hob
couple of solar wind up led lanterns
portapotti
couple of folding chairs and a folding table
washing up bowl and sundries
plates ,mugs, cutlery ,frying pan and saucepan
food and a couple of gallon bottles of water
thats about it..no worries about weight, or the tent leaking or blowing away and the comfort of a proper mattress.
when we retire and go roaming more the mattress may get repaced by a folding wooden futon on legs to give a poor mans rock and roll bed with storage under.... but still easy to remove.
