Abstract: A bed for a recreational vehicle that is stored near the ceiling in the front portion of the vehicle when not in use and is lowered for usage. The bed when stored above the driver's area does not interfere with the operation of the vehicle. The bed is lowered into the seating area when made available for use. The bed movement is power actuated over a height difference of two and one-half to three feet. The seats are adjusted out of the path of the bed and the power mechanism is interrupted when items are in the path of the bed movement. The power actuator is contained within the bed frame and movement is controlled by a rack and pinion mounting.
