Our optional layout for our Intrepid model truly is a wide open floor plan. It has a clear pathway front to back with three rows of ‘L track’ to secure bicycles, kayaks, motorcycle and or gear. The counter assembly by the side door can be removed by 6 bolts in less than 5 minutes if desired. Another option is to have a fold up bench seat instead of the counter assembly. Can it sleep more than 2? Sure - have the beds in the middle position and two more people can sleep on the floor using sleeping pads and sleeping bags. Many options for use with this van layout.
