My overall situation has taken a dramatic turn and looking for ways to travel and not spend $100/night on hotel rooms.
I'm looking at an older fleet F350 extended wheelbase, high roof van that was used as a people transporter that were wheelchair bound.
Still has the wheel chair lift in the back.
Has a reman Triton 5.4 gas motor with about 100K on it.
Has had some recent service like front end, brakes and tires.
Comes with dual batteries and an inverter.
It has side windows and wish it were a slab side instead.
I'm looking at the lift and wondering if I can modify it to accommodate a MC wheelbase and about 900lbs.
Even if I had to fab a removable panel, it's be no different than using a ramp.
Build a fold-up platform for a mattress, a closet for storage and room in the middle for a bike.
Having said all that ... for the cost of purchase, outfitting and operating ... that'd pay for a LOT of overnight stays.
