Packing a Murphy bed up front and bunk beds in the rear into just 22 feet is no small trick, and the 177BH pulls it off while staying light enough to tow with a half-ton truck. The solar prep and 13.5 BTU AC are thoughtful touches at this price point, and owners consistently praise the storage layout given the overall footprint. It rates a 4.3 for floorplan efficiency on RV Insider — high marks for a budget bunkhouse — though the seating area runs cozy when everyone's inside. As with most entry-level Forest River builds, expect a few minor fit-and-finish quirks in the first season.
