I am planning on getting a van early January to go to the RTR. I have watched probably over 100 van build videos and the weight of all that wood in the paneling, roof, floors and furniture is worrisome; how will it impact my gas consumption???? Luan looks light ... and could be an asset to hold in insulation.
But how important is insulation?? I think I heard Bob W. say on a video that it is good in the ceiling but not necessary elsewhere.
I have seen also where people say there has to be a gap (insulation) between van wall and reflectix (except on windows).
If this is correct then why is the reflectix contacting the van walls on so many builds?
Last question for this post - I have a stack of large foil 'bag' used by Sprouts to transport cold groceries - can I repurpose those effectively instead of using reflectix?
