George;

Though I got my toilel a long time before I got my westy, I lucked out
one one dimension--the height.

It may be important to some that the toilet be able to slide under the
edge of the extended bed to get it out of the way. 13 inches is the
clearance on an 83, I think later models are even lower. Some might
like the extra capacity, but the ability to stow away will be a factor
for others.
