    Definitely the best layout for a family of four. Very simple but efficient in all corners.

    I can't warm up to class Bs. They tend to be very expensive and the least amount of room. I'd be claustrophobic in that with three other people. For similar money, you can get a Class C with some slide outs, a real bathroom and a real refrigerator. Then people add dogs to these things...not for me!

    • @futureroadsvanco.604
      @futureroadsvanco.604  Před 2 lety +2

      Super fair!! One of the main things is that it’s easy to move around in, park, find places to sleep, etc. For example, trying to see your friends and family while on the road would be a bigger hassle with a Class C. But I completely see your POV!

    Having a family of four In a can requires that you have an indoor shower with a toilet. The builders should have known that. How on earth would they use that toilet with that crowd in the van??

    • @futureroadsvanco.604
      @futureroadsvanco.604  Před rokem

      Builders here 😊 Everyone has different priorities and with such a small amount of space, you can’t always have everything. This was a custom van build for the family and they specifically requested no shower/enclosed bathroom to save space for comfortable beds, an area for the kids to do schoolwork, a functional kitchen, etc. There are places to shower (like gyms) and use the restroom outside of your van
