My 2 cents on these often gorgeous vans is...sometimes, less is more.

May I talk about ground clearance.
Running boards look cool, and many or most of the new camper vans have them. BUT, travelling on the back roads which are or can be, bumpy, gravel, have shale rock, boggy sections, corrugations ( wash boards ) and be plane nasty.
Many of the camper vans should not leave the smooth paved sections of highway. So the back roads of BC are of limits IMO. Ten ply tyres with winter type treads are also a good idea. Post 6392 looks cool, but the exhaust would be missing quite quickly, if it went where we go. We have the scratch marks to prove it.
Now about the paint. We have orange and black stripes. Original colours, and Harley colours. I think Harley is in serious trouble, and have thought about changing the orange stripe. Something like green, but Shirley says burgundy tending towards purple would look good. Painting, wyring, rubbers are on my list for this coming fall and winter. The cream colour would stay.
Notice the bump over the front window is missing. That was done late last year.
