Re: Advice on my layout...
Those overhanging shelves cut into the space, which may not be an issue 99% of the time- but if it is you can't move them, plus with them over the bikes that cubby looks like it would turn into a black hole (although I could see something for muddy bike shoes...) In addition you have to put the shelf somewhere when not in place- in the garage or somewhere else in the van. The latter could be a nightmare especially if you forget to leave the shelf at home. The bed span from my 50 is plenty strong to be a shelf, even extended to the full width of the van- so there is no doubt SMB could make it, but what you wind up with is less flexible.
Personally, I like the idea of having SMB do raingler mounts in the wall for the net. You can specify the width to match the raingler net and the net is 100% removable, stowable anywhere, and soft. I think you would be restricted to storing softer items on the net-shelf, but pillows and bulky items are a pain anyway, and a light duffle of clothes would work too. It would be a built in drying rack, double as a place to hang hangers... the more I think about it, the more I like it.
