Widest cargo or passenger van in Australia for conversion
(Preview)
I'm sure someone has already scoped this out before. Are there any vans (not caravan) which will fit a full size bed widthways rather than lengthways? On Redbook the Transit seem to be the widest but the measurement includes the mirrors. Internally, they weren't as wide as I was hoping.

It's my inte...

Got the Laundry money sorted. Amazing how quickly it adds up from loose change. 600ml Coke holds $860 in $2 coins and the fruit vessel hold $330 in $1 coins. Hope I have enough to keep me in clean undies for a while.
