More European Designs becoming prevalent?

For me, all this is just getting nuts! It is a long way from our 82 Chevy 2500 van we bought stripped from the factory for work vans and we converted it to a camping, traveling, site-seeing lovely. We had a couch across the back that gaucho converted into a bed, a porta potty, ten gallons of fresh water and a little sink built into a counter, along with some nice van seats and a couple of nice conversion windows. I was still living in the 70s in my mind, so we carpeted the walls and floor with shag carpeting and I installed a full sheet of 1/4 inch birch plywood to finish the ceiling. Young, stupid and full of adventure twosome with a dog going all over the country in this rig. What great memories of simplicity.

Now, I have to have at least some luxury....like a hot shower, a full galley and a real john! I got soft in my old age, I guess.
