DO Model Bed Configurations

DO Model Bed Configurations

One of the biggest topics owners of DO Model Vandoit adventure vans (Long and EL chassis) ask about is how to make the platform beds work for the number of passengers who will be traveling and sleeping in the van, while also creating space for luggage.

To address this topic, we created this great video to demonstrate our recommended layouts.  Any layouts outside of these recommendations we do not recommend due to the diminishing of ease of use and user experience.  The video includes:
  1. How to operate the Vandoit DO Model bed platforms
  2. How to configure space for 5 passengers
  3. How to configure space for 3-4 passengers
  4. How to configure space for 1-2 passengers
Watch to discover how you can make your DO Model Vandoit layout work perfectly for your next excursion!
