After countless hours of reading advice from this forum, I just ordered my "Tabin in the Woods." Silver-on-silver CS-S max with the following modifications:
front window
side portal window
exterior shower
aluminum front tongue rack
replace front bench inside with custom cabinet and sink
remove sink from wet bath
remove TV from clamshell galley & and replace with cabinet door. 
Solid scuba black upholstery-no print
my only disappointment was they wouldn't split the cushions - made several attempts. 

I live in SW Florida and will be driving about 9 hours one-way to pick it up. Justin at Southland RV in Georgia was just great to work with! 

Like many on this forum, I am a solo camper and ready to get out of a tent. I also intend to travel full time when I retire in 3 years. I figure this will give me time to work the bugs out. So so while I wait, I fantasize about glamping it up and making it cozy. 

Thanks to all of you who post here. Your experience has been invaluable!

    Haha. Yes! Would have named her the T@rdis, but have been beaten to the punch!

    Good for you!  Now the wait.  Last year we ordered a custom Clamshell too.  At that time it was really hot here in Texas so I didn't think twice about not wanting to cook inside.  Although, I do want my coffee first thing without having to go out so we got the frig inside.  (don't like powdered cream).  I Wish I had them put D/C up front for a coffee maker though, and should have eliminated the TV in the back like you did.  We'll never use that!  They wouldn't split the cushions for us either, I wonder why, but that was an easy fix.  Well, I hope your wait isn't too grueling!

    Fridge inside a good idea! I thought of coffee and didn't think the cream thing through
