What Were We THINKING ? Top 3 Van Renovation REGRETS

We’ve made A LOT of upgrades to our Class B camper van, Mr. Lemon… and not all of them were good ideas.

From smart space-saving solutions to upgrades that totally flopped (yes, we're looking at you, broken table), we’re sharing what we’d absolutely do again — and what we’d avoid like a sketchy campground bathroom.
