    Oh, I found this, nice to meet your friends an see their van. Different layout is well thought out and I really like the shut off for the propane and the ability to sleep side to side. I only need a cot which gives me a 36" deep garage and more room for living. I their kitchen alcove. Avoids congestion in the Hallway. The shower curtain looks special. Being open it gives the appearance of an open space and allows the shower to dry out.
    i like it.

    @hywaywolf Před 2 lety +1

    Great setup. We didn't do a build but we wanted many of the same things as this van has. Bed to go across the width of the van with the cut-out for the windows to allow for it. A bench/couch type seat. We skipped the shower and sadly don't have a stove (so awesome that they do). We also bought those van essential fan covers, but we got it to cut out the wind noise. That was an immediate improvement, plus it cuts out the spotlight effect when we are in a Walmart parking lot.
