L400, Long wheel base or Short wheel base?

Sorry for the Caravan imagery...but here on the far east coast it's hard to get a feeling of size when I can't physically see one.

one thing I can guarantee... it will be significantly TALLER than a caravan

I don't have a family, just myself and my girlfriend. I am torn between the swb and the lwb because it will be used on the weekend for camping and hiking (4x4 roads). But during the week it will be used as a commuter in Vancouver. I'm leaning towards the swb because of its compactness. But I am worried about there not being enough room to sleep in.

Could someone comment on the total available space in each when setting up a sleeping platform. Is the 12" noticeable once there is a bed in place? Would it be worth it if you had to commute in Vancouver every day?

Thanks !

The Lwb would be nice for sleeping in. My first Van was the l300 which has more room than the swb l400. Simply due to the design. I didn't realize this till after. I've gotten used to the swb now but miss the packing room I used to have. It's harder to find the Lwb.
