This is going to be the test of drivers' sanity once camper vans start coming from the factory with autopilots. I wonder if there will be some people engaging their autopilot and going to take a nap, haha!

Absolutely no doubt in my mind it will happen!

Still building mine out but here are some updated pictures. Going to be a full camper with water, fridge, stove, oven, microwave, bed, toilet etc..
And of course room for my 2 Altas and 2020 Husky 501!

Can you flip my pictures, Phillip? Thanks

This is the new Urban Assault Vehicle for the Stripes reboot.

Can't wait.

I was down at Ft Knox for ROTC basic training when Stripes was released in the early 80's. A bunch of the scenes were filmed at Ft Knox. They let us have passes to go see it one weekend. Besides having a ball seeing all the places we had become familiar with in the film, I distinctly remember being in the theater lobby and thinking how sloppy and long haired everyone looked. And how weird my reaction felt to myself as I was a long haired hippy rock n roller before I got my basic crew cut, Lol.

Army ROTC "basic" was a joke compared to real basic, so props to everyone who went through real basic in which ever branch you served in.

Awesome van Bought-2-L8! Like the bed setup it's kinda similar to mine
You guys think we can make a "share your setup/motovan" thread? or should I just post it in here? I built mine last year and I'd love to share it. It's a bit more "DIY" looking than the one above though:LOL:

We have a "Hauling My Alta" sub-forum. Please create a new thread there.

This current thread started as a bunch of funny pictures in "Pictures" sub-forum, but ended up containing interesting stuff. I have moved it into the appropriate "Hauling My Alta" sub-forum.

I know this isn't a motovan, but the idea will be to buy one of the new Amazon/Rivian vans. You would have the room and all the power to really make an Alta hauler. Until then, here was me yesterday. I can charge from from the batteries as I haul the bike.

Nice setup! I charge off of my 2022 F150 Platinum Powerboost Hybrid. It has a 7200 watt on-board inverter so I can actually fast charge and slow charge 2 Altas at the same time!
