More storage in our 20fq

One of my first challenges with the 20fq was storage. ORV did a great job of providing plenty of fresh water and capacity for black and gray water. And even provisions for solar and battery space. But for my wife and I there was not enough storage to put enough "home goods" for a week in the boonies. So I built a set of shelves for the bathroom and the dining area to store essentials. If I was going to do it again I would probably change the shelf spacing a little to obtain a little more storage. I would also mess with the wood stain coloring to try and match the factory color a little closer. In case you're wondering, there is a small lip at the edge of each shelf to prevent goods from sliding off. Nothing has fallen off these shelves in 30,000 miles.......yes I said thirty thousand miles. We really travel!

That's ok. I just lay on my left side and everything is fine.

Good idea with the shelving but matching colors can certainly be a challenge.

Storage was one of the reasons we ended up with the 25RDS - among other things.
