I'm going to put the bed on a sliding track so it raises out of the way when it's not in use. I'm also going to make the back panels of the bed split into 2 halfs so I can turn it into a seat. Since the battery bank is going to be 50" x 18" x 18" along the back door area, it will basically create a nice corner sofa with the bed if I get some extra cushions to put on top of my bank enclosure.

Oh man it looks so roomy! Only problem is that it's a little too pricey for me. I wouldn't mind a hippie wagon, although it's probably safer to have a cargo van concerning the police. I'll take note of this vehicle anyway in case I change my mind again, sprinter is working for now.

noted and I've designed this system, plus an additional one for my charge controller, battery tender, battery desulfator, and inverter.

the cat idea was a joke, there's no way it's a good idea to carry a cat through a situation like that. I'd end up wasting power having to climate control the van when no ones in it because the cat would die.

Plus they make noise when they're alone, the one I'd end up bringing is a LOUD bombay that gets louder when I'm not around (she's clingy). Last thing I'd need is for the cat to meow while I'm inside walmart, then be portrayed on the 5 o clock news as an animal abuser who locked my cat in the car with the windows up.

I've looked into biodiesel conversions, and they will work on pretty much any diesel van / bus / truck.
