Having borrowed a camper van with a nicely decorated wood interior, I can appreciate the need for lightweight. This one still had stock suspension, tires and engine designed for an empty cargo van, but it carried hundreds of lbs of hardwood cabinets. Beautiful, but totally impractical for making it up and down mountain passes in Colorado. At one point we were going 35 mph holding up a mile of traffic.
