Yeah, I've owned four Vanagons over the years and their utility as a hauler
of stuff/detritus was always my paramount interest.  Two of mine were
campers that ultimately ended up with stripped-out interiors, 'cause the
cabinets got in the way of my stuff/detritus hauling endeavors.  I will say
that I've developed an almost freakish obsession with preserving the groovy
stripey upholstery of my current van, so I'm trying to be a responsible slob
