Stealth is nice. Our current van is a Chevy Astro passenger van converted to a campervan. It has all the windows and a ladder rack on top so it doesn't scream "VANLIFE" to everyone.
We have stayed at some trailheads were overnight camping isn't allowed and never got a second look from rangers cruising the parking lot.
I'm considering one of these for our next van (when we go mobile full-time). A box truck like that won't get a second look in the city although it would stick out in rural areas.
Either that or a Ford Transit. (Midroof, extended wheelbase, regular length)
