I use a one piece double-sided curtain which hangs from snaps around the top
of the interior of the van.  It begins above the the suit closet, turns in
back of the front cabin and wraps back around across the slider and hatch
window.  One side is exposed black felt for summer and the other has mylar
glued to it for the summer.  The curtain hangs three feet down.  In the
winter, because the curtain does not fir flush against the window it creates
the illusion of an empty dark van.  If I secure these curtains properly and
remain still, it is impossible to detect my presence in the van.  The
drawback to these curtains is that it diminishes cabin space and takes about
5 minutes to erect.  I use a solar fan in the cieling vent to stay somewhat
cool.  I've always had the idea to create some device that would allow you
to securely crack the hatch in back to draw a draft across the lower bed.

As far as parking location goes, I've become an expert at this.  College
towns are relatively hassle free when it comes to sleeping in cars, and
Wal-Mart has a policy of not hassling overnight visitors. The best way to
sleep without hassle is to drive to the closest interstate rest stop.
