LFGSS Camper Van owners?

Yeah I have one and I’ve lent it to a few friends so...from painful experience:

1. Open a down-wind window when lowering the roof or you’ll scissor a hole in the roof bellows
   
2. Check the roof is down visually before you drive off
   
3. Don’t put petrol in the tank rather than diesel and don’t then drive off or you’ll fuck the engine
   
4. Don’t run the stereo when camping or you’ll flatten the engine battery
   
5. Open windows when you cook, or better still, barbecue outside
   
6. Wind the awning in unless you’re using it and esp in windy weather, or it’ll flip. Peg it down and have one leg taller than the other so any rain will run off
   
7. Leave it in gear to turn the NS seat around as you’ll need to drop the handbrake and it’ll roll off. Even if it’s in gear make sure no-one is close to the van when you drop the brake as it’ll still move 5-10cm, particularly if on levelling chocks
   
8. Don’t stand on the armrests when climbing up to the top bunk
   
9. Have a boatload of fun!
