    Too Funny - Just a few weeks ago I commented on how great your sleeping/storage set up was! & now you go and change the layout of your set up-:)
    I'll be interested to see how that works for you going forward.
    Seeing your huge air conditioner system (IMO) makes a compelling case to upgrade to a Hybrid Rav4? (& a factory built in battery and charger)
    When I built my Transit van 8 years ago I did not want to incorporate any propane (except for my portable butane stove as a backup unit) I just use my alternator powered house battery bank to power my cooktop et al. No microwave in this rig as I have plenty of room - so I cook for all most of my meals.
