I carry way too much stuff to get by with shelves on only one side.  With shelves on both sides I still have 36" clear between them and over 10ft of usable length.

Van looks good! Do the 2 rows of interior racks ever limit you on carrying TVs? Do you ever wish that you went with just one rack and left the other side available for components?

I want to get racks in our van but I don't want to put them on both sides and then find out that I can't carry anything.

Thanks!

Here's a picture with the van loaded full of TVs.  I think I've had 12 TVs in at one time ranging from 75" to 49".






This is two full height BGR racks with doors, cable ladder and a bunch of other accessories:

I have the Prime Designs Ergo rack on the top of my Med Roof Transit and love it.  I don't know if they have an option for the high roof that drops the ladders down far enough.  Here's some photos showing 6ft & 10ft ladders on top.






I’ve followed another thread that had pics of yours van. You had some great pics of the interior setup. It helps me with ideas on shelving etc for sure. Thanks for sharing all these pics with us. That’s sweet how many TVs fit in there.

By me with all the snow and road salt I might just be better off trying to hang some ladders off the roof inside and maybe in the good months use the roof rack. Hmmmm

I'm not sure what's standard on the new vans, but I rely a lot on the rear camera and backup sensors which were an option in 2015 when I purchased mine.

Ya backup camera for sure. The 2019 euro model transits you can opt for an 8” touch. Can’t wait till they bring the update over here. Backup cam would look good on an 8”. I don’t think I will opt for the sensors though as the backup camera is always good enough on my ram pickup. Never once wished I had sensors.


The government actually mandated 2018 and newer vehicles have a backup camera. Good stuff.
