Here are some pictures of Arizona's new tour van. I'm outfitting it for use as an RV. It's a 2004 Dodge Sprinter 3500. It's a Mercedes that dodge re-sells in the US, it's a Turbo Diesel engine, and empty on the drive home got 26mpg, and the previous owner claims 23mpg when it's fully loaded. It's a huge step up from the 8-14mpg that the typical Ford E-350 tour van gets. No plans to convert it to run on vegetable oil yet.]]></description>

<p>You can see that there is a cargo divder, and no insulation to protect from the elements. The divider has been removed, I&#8217;ve done more work than I have pictures of, so there is a small gap in the documentation.</p>

<p>So here is the basic idea (I love google sketchup, but I really wish it would run on my Linux Ubuntu box). Shown from the behind the driver/passenger seats back. There will be two benches in an &#8220;L&#8221; shape, a small kitchenette, overhead storage bins, and in the rear, two bunks, with a cargo area below. Windows will be added, to the sliding door, and opposite behind the driver. The interior is getting insulated, and then a rooftop AC unit is going in as well. Electrical systems are going to be 2 AGM batterries, a 2000watt inverter/charger, and the kitchen stove will run off of small 1lbs propane tanks. Some of the design has already changed, but it&#8217;s all in my head.<!-- PHP 5.x --></p>
