>>929205My biggest issue is security.
My truck has just a pvc canopy and a non locking tailgate.
The cab isn't very secure either.
The door can be opened with a screwdriver.
I know it can never be 100% secure, so I try to camouflage things instead.
I keep all of my things in a big metal locker, thats bolted to the floor at the cab end of the bed, and disguised as a strawbale.
Its a farm truck, so straw is not out of place.
I have a thin foam mattress and wool blanket, which I keep folded in a tarp and hanging from the canopy frame.
It looks like a regular tarp.
I've also built plywood storage boxes on each side of the van.
They run the length of the van and the height/ width of the wheel well. I keep cheap stuff in there like clothes.
The floor of the bed is ply lined too.
I have a security alarm with a vibration sensor. It will sound if somebody gets in the truck.
I try to park in people's driveways or property (with their permission) whenever I can.
