Shuttle Buses

[GrantRobertson]

I realize this is not for everyone, but,
I wanted the best of both worlds in my step van - open entry and passenger seating.
The solution for me was to create a base for the passenger seat that swiveled- the pivot being at the rear of the seat so that when the seat was reversed, it was rearward of the door opening and curtain.
Granted- it requires some engineering and fabrication that may need to be hired, but it is an option.

I was going to suggest some kind of sliding mechanism, so the passenger seat could slide up over the entrance steps while driving, then slide back while parked.

When I had my DIY dodge conversion van I used a black piece of fleece that would hang behind the seats or the option to wrap around the front cab and windshield depending on the weather conditions.
It did not give me any more room, except it allowed me access to the front seat to put some of the extra "stuff" while we were stationary and it made it feel less claustrophobic .
When I got my 99 Roadtrek with the rotating front seats I could not believe how much it opened the living space.
