One of the advantages to a converted cargo van is "stealthiness". I would love an awning on mine, but the minute I put on a nice Fiamma, my van will be perceived as an "RV". as it stands now, it's a "station wagon" and as such, doesn't violate my condo's regulations. And if I remember correctly, the only place I could find a long enough bed for Ed, was by having a special build done by Sportsmobile?
Building my own solved that problem - and probably cost an extra thousand dollars or so. Plus, it still functions as a cargo van - I have hauled massive dining room furniture in it, for example. Of course, there's a tradeoff - my "stove" is a hotplate; and my bathroom is a Luggable Loo. Not luxurious, but it works great for us :-)
