It could be considered similar to the RT body camper in post #28, but with the seats made out of the bed instead of the bulky stow & go seats.
That is basically what the Escape and Juicy version do. They keep the rear stock seat to maintain the ability to legally carry 5 passengers. No rental company would want to take on the legal liability of making their own seats. However, for only two people pulling the rear seat is a given and the pull out drawers could be combined with the folding bed / benches for the best of both worlds.
