Propane two burner stove is made out of a aluminum men working sign (as are MANY other parts). Stove works fine with doors closed or open. Flexible supply line goes to 1 lb bottle at bottom.  Wind guards of the same material snap into place when needed.

Drawers held in place by vertical dowel in spring loaded hole. Bucket under sink is gray water. It i struely amazing how much space is often wasted when SO many hidden spots are available for storage and stash.    Dedicated deep cycle battery mounted in the bottom cabinet

Center console box has wheels on the rear, rubber on the front. Lift the front and it easily rolls back out of the way but the rubber holds it in place otherwise.

I experemented with many different designs and this wind deflector worked the best - very little wind in my ear when driving with the window open (even less when I open the rear vent windows)

I have a propane water heater but rarely use it - this "solar bag" rides on the roof and is usually all I need

The LED indicator lights show the water level in the 13 gallon water tank I built and installed in the dead space inder the van on the driver side adjacent to where the side door step is on the passenger side. I simply drilled holes in the tank wall in a vertical line and installed galvinased maching screws than protrude into the water. Attached wires to each for a ground when the water reaches that level (grounded the water at bottom of tank).

thin Black-out window covers and reflective insulating ones slide under the mattress when not in use. Along with an outdoor table made from a stop sign.

Propane water heater with shower is mounted to the door, 5 Gallon propane tank is mounted just inside to the left in an air-tight locker vented to outside air. Can slip-fit hot water line to sink when I want but never have.   Tiny high putched buzzer on bottom of cabinet where I lay my head attached to toggle switch under bumper for "trip wire" of fishng line stretched around perimiter when boondocking in suspect locations. Four headlights on the roof give me a 5-10 seconds advantage!
