I really wish I could buy something like that in the US instead of cars with the engine bay taking up a third of its length.

Not the same, but similar - I have a Bedford Bambi campervan, it’s ludicrous and slow but all my VW owning friends hang out in the Bambi as it has so much space.

Why does everyone forget chainsaws.

Practical, widely available and the most efficient packing solution out there.

I could easily fit two dozen people (chainsaws aren’t inherently sexist btw) into that van with the use of mother nature’s little buddy, the chainsaw.
