The founders of Vanning in Plain Sight came from a background of hotel work, which means each of their vans is designed to be a “hotel on wheels” combining luxury and comfort with the ease of traveling wherever your heart takes you. They definitely succeed in their latest build that’s for sale now.
The moment you open the front door, you can feel that “hotel” vibe with the sleek finishes and calming color scheme. There’s a shower, toilet, oven, cooktop, and multiple configurations for the bed and work/dining space. The most unique feature is the built-in bookshelf that acts as a barricade between the back doors and the bed. While most vanlifers leave this space open, closing it off creates added security and extra storage.

Impressive.
Absolutely beautiful and wonderfully organized!
Just amazing! I love everything about this van!!
As to my knowledge the Ford Transit is the only current style van which offers most standing headroom from all others. However, the handicap not being able to sleep across driving direction remains.
The here shown option to sleep lengthwise provides less than a queen size bed which isn’t comfortable for two.
The bench seating isn’t for me either because I prefer facing each other which means a dinette.
The drawer with the fridge and freezer is great but accessing it is not. You don’t have space to sit or stand except at the very end. I like the drawers which makes it easy to store and pick stuff and for me the only way to go as the pull out tables are which are out of the way when not in use.
The shower room on my bucket list. This one is great except when you want to use the composting toilet.
There isn’t sufficient leg room inside the shower stall for privacy.
In short, this van is great for a single person but not for a couple.
Are you KIDDING ME??!! WOW!! Think I’ll sell my house and buy one of these!!
