Use behind the rear axle as a cargo area, ahead the axle as the "living" area.
That's how I've got it laid out. As soon as I get a partition built, I'll post some pics. I just finished my stereo speaker installation. Sounds decent.

Is it Cummins powered?
This one has the DT466. Apparently, the Cummings is the one to get, but this motor seems to have good reliability recordings. I know very little about these 'medium duty' diesel engines. Look to be just good ole workhorses, that don't require a whole lot of maintaining. Oh, and I have never had a turbo, I do now! I cut all the exhaust pipe out that was under the bus. That turbo spooling up sounds pretty cool.

A cornbinder engine eh! Pretty reliable but no powerhouse. Should work well.
