Interior

Inside the vehicle we have 10 feet of total living space, from the backdoors to the wall that divides the front from the back. We have custom cabinetry we made ourselves, painted Water Garden by Magnolia. The walls are MDF shiplap panels painted Ultra Pure White by Behr. The walnut countertops (and slide out table from under the bed) we purchased from IKEA and the cabinet handles are from Target. We use a Nature’s Head toilet with coconut coir thats on a slide out from beneath the bed. Our fridge is an Isotherm Elegance Cruise 130 and we love it! The sink and faucet are both off amazon and powered by a shurflo water pump hidden under the bed. We sleep on a Zinus 5 inch foam mattress that’s pretty comfy and not too hot like most people claim. Our van is heated by a Espar d2 diesel heater we purchased from Heatso.com and its a dream come true! Most of our gear storage is under the bed, accessible from the back doors. Our flush mount LED lights are all on dimmers, which makes a huge difference!
