Agree with you on the cargo.

Just checking back in. Here's what I'm looking for:

Clean, fairly new, low miles E350, RB50 or similar, penthouse is a must, and 4x4. We also want all the amenities. If you see any of those around, we're eager.

Why not grab this for $60k, send it to SMB for an $8k elec penthouse top and you have a sweet SMB pop-top for a WHOLE lot less than even a pre-owned one from SMB would cost; http://www.sportsmobileforum.com/vie...hp?f=7&t=15710

Skinny's rig is really nice but the interior build as is wouldn't work for a small family or those needing seating for more than 2, and that platform bed is good for really just sleeping 1, correct me if I'm wrong. Oh, and rather than send it to SMB for a top, speaking from personal experience having owned both, go for a CCV pop top. Good luck with your search, seems more and more people are looking to get into a SMB type rig, fewer available. Might just have to build one to your specs from scratch with a clean cargo van......

Thanks, REF
If I had the original mattress in the van, it's a twin size. Would sleep two, very cozy.
I think if you were to remove the large aluminum box that's on the floor behind the drivers seat, you might be able to get a short bench seat in there.
