    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Need outfitting advise for new Hawk

    Bedding Crookedtail, we have a 2007 hawk and put a memory foam topper on top of the factory mattress, we also keep our flannel sheets and comforter on and it fits fine with the top down, all we do is take the pillows off. Older models cannot do this but newer ones have more clearance.
