What's inside your van?
Just picked this up about an hour ago...
yeah, I'm gonna die... soon
Never even sat in a kayak before!
it's a wilderness systems tarpon 120 kayak.
At 12.6 foot I'm VERY glad I have the extended body!

for that little bit of stuff, you guys could fit it in a standard cab pickup 
now my van has toolboxes lining most of the walls, 2 air compressors, plenty of tools, misc clothes and other personal effects, my .357, and plenty more stuff for me to play with

Gosh I missed Share Your Messy Truck day yesterday!
Here's mine, filled with stuff I forget is even in there:
I wish I had the extended body-----could fit even more stuff inside then!

Apart from that rather small space just inside the barn doors there's almost no nook, cranny or spot not filled with something. Under the seats, the right side air bag nook (not originally installed), a HD wire basket between the seats---its full!
From here I can only go longer and taller----which I'm looking to do now anyway with a new-to-me van!

JWA it is the goo and the slimy stuff from melted food stuffed in all the pockets and under the seats that went frozen and unnoticed in winter that is making a come back now that it is spring!

Ahh okay---but even though its maybe too late when the goo is frozen its easier to remove! That bit of household cleaning knowledge comes directly from Hints From Heloise BTW! Props to her if she was an FTE Member!
Every so often, weather permitting I empty my mess into the driveway, sort it out, toss out my own lunch time remnants and find stuff I've already replaced thinking it was lost or broken parts that need to be trashed. While mostly empty an air hose clears out the mounds of dust and then its time to break out the all surface cleaners to remove urethane finger prints and all sorts of other work-related crap.
We who work out of vans all too quickly realize there's just too much room to toss crap--and we do thinking we won't let it get as bad as the last time. Oh yeah--that's exactly what we do right?
