    Sometimes these vans really look too tiny for my taste, but this one is really nice. Every space is used in the best way possible and it doesn't look cluttered up.

    They seem happy and realist. It is good that people care about children enough to call about Luna. Her parents were understanding and that's how it should be...best of luck to you.

    Love the way the sprinter van is setup. Also having the inside painted white it looks so much bigger plus you have a shower with a toilet too. Very nice.

      They will probably upgrade to a skoolie or remodel Vanessa. At least that is what I've seen other people do, so don't quote me on it. 😂👍

  • @yvonnerogers1286

    Best so far that I have seen. Great to see an actual functional wash-room. Why is it that so many Rv'rs think it's ok to only wash once a week. Hygeine is a basic need yet so many skip this out of their build.

    • @lamaking1978
      @lamaking1978 5 лет назад +12

      Yvonne Rogers frankly you get use to not washing your body for days at a time. It’s a luxury to have that. And it’s often space that most of us need for more immediate things. Most of us have gym memberships and get our showers that way.

    • @mandlerparr1
      @mandlerparr1 4 года назад +3

      Most people have gym memberships to national chains or YMCA memberships and use those showers.

    • @avalon_is_awesome2262
      @avalon_is_awesome2262 4 года назад

      Yes hygiene is important but not that essential it's not like they dont shower people just do it every couple of days

    • @pajuilquijote4497
      @pajuilquijote4497 4 года назад +4

      I agree with the importance of hygiene. I cringe every time I see vans with no washroom or toilet. I understand that space is important, but hygiene and health should be on top of everyone’s list. Since the goal is to enjoy the outdoors and travel it shouldn’t be such an issue to sacrifice space for a small washroom and toilet. What I don’t understand is why advocate that gym memberships are the best alternatives, but choose to shower every other day. To my understanding the purpose of getting a gym membership is to substitute the bathroom you really want, but can’t have. I don’t know, but to each his own.

    • @mt9021
      @mt9021 4 года назад +3

      Exactly! If I every get to live in a van my first priority is it must have a washroom (toilet and shower)! And, it must be closed off from the rest of the van, meaning, it must have a door to enter and exit. I saw one couple who lived in a van where they simply take out their toilet and store it in a cabinet next to the sink; it made me cringe.

      You have to meet certain safety guidelines for a seat that has a child seat in it (three point harness, bolted to the chassis frame). A sofa style seat with a storage box would not meet these guidelines.
