    I’m 6’6 and thinking how should I start MiniVanlife or SUV life. But I’m looking more into a 2000 Honda CRV if it’s a SUV that I choose.. Or a 2004 Peugeot 807, 1994 Toyota Estima, 2002 Nissan Serena has higher ceilings

    Sir, you are gigantic and you make that car look like a Carrera 4s. lmao xD I didn't actually understand the scale until I saw you demo the bed setup. I was looking at a Cayman and thought it was so roomy. However, for a 6'5" frame you're making the most of the space. Also, I thought Cayman had a roof load of 165. Your roof tent is nearly 170 isn't it? Do we have wiggle room because I want a pop-up on my Panamera but I'm trying to stick to the roof load. I see you have some other customizations so maybe that compensates for the weight.
