Right now I use a 1999 Astro van high top conversion as my primary tow vehicle for my boat. It works well and I am able to camp out of it as well. But I bought it used and it had been a New York van so I am slowly seeing corrosion issues and some wiring problems. I have been looking into the new Ford transit 2500 high top vans as a replacement. I found a dealer near me that has a 2015 with diesel engine for about $10,000.00 off retail that I am going to look at tomorrow. My question is does anyone know of a computer program that can assist me with designing a new interior for this van? It is a clean blank space and I have some ideas in my head but want to compute twice and cut once on the material. I plan to use a cabinet grade Maple plywood for the interior with Bamboo trim and flooring.




Thanks
 
Only thing I know of is auto cad. I'm sure there are others, but I'm not familiar with them.

Good luck. Those are great vans.

Don't forget the bubble windows, murals and keep on trucking mud flaps. :)
 
There are some very high dollar conversion vans that I see on the net from time to time. I think Mercedes and others are being used as the base vehicle. Most are being sold in Europe.

If you can get the interior layouts of those, they certainly should give you a "wealth" of ideas. Not a program like you asked for, but might help anyways.
Gizmodo is the site that shows a lot of them. richg99

I have done full livable conversions on 5 vans over the years and couple even included bubble windows and shag carpet. If I get this one it will be purpose built for fishing. I am working on rod and separate reel storage ideas I am also researching a 4 wheel drive conversion for it. I have never LIVED out of one of my other than short trips and 8 months traveling Baja. This just seems like the almost perfect platform. I am getting some of my inspiration from the high dollar Mercedes travel vans but not willing to dump 100 grand + on something that's not purpose built just the way I want it.
