I'm still looking at ideas for a field/camp kitchen module for my Dodge Caravan GT.. this came up in image search clicky to embiggenView attachment 1864139

My Dad made a camp box kitchen for the back of our Jeep Wagoneer. Now days I think I'd just buy something like this:

Chuck Box Camp Kitchen

Yea but the van is the stow-n-go version, so there's a literal pit under the cargo liftgate level, so one would need to build a deck or something to raise that chuck box up.. might be something to look for at antique stores or even local sales

I wouldn't want to cook off on the tailgate of either my pickup with it's canopy or my wifes Jeep Liberty. I'd set up a dinning fly over a picnic table and carry the camp box, Ice chest and water jugs over to it.

Edited to add; right now we use totes but it would be nice to be a little more compact, modular and organized.

Its partly why i like the ideas that incorporate a sink n water system, washing hands especially with two small kids.... enough of a challenge without a good sink have never gotten anything close to warm running water at any State Park or Rest Stop

For those quick washes we pack adult size wet wipes.

When I had kids I used all the throw away plastic and paper stuff. The paper stuff can just go in the fire. When I did forestry I used as much simple clean-up meals as possible, like stuff you added boiling water to, breakfast bars, etc.

I guess as a lone traveler things are different. Never thought a mobile 'kitchen' as in sink, burner, stove, would be desirable. Wouldn't want to cook food in something so contained as a van/truck. Maybe some fold down burner in an exterior steel box.

Same with a toilet. A portable $50 toilet for poop emergencies where I can't be somewhere, just a stand/bags.
20oz bottle with a red warning tape for peeing as in 'don't drink me.' I've used that in my cargo van for years.

Most people are so into retaining the same luxuries on the road as they had at home. A pass.

Like I said before - gear hauler/internet/desk office over turning something into a foodies' fantasy.

I've traveled with a wife and kids, with girlfriends, and by myself, and it really depends on the skill sets you're dealing with, as far as traveling with others. Some people just can't handle primitive living, or changes in their routines. Personally I just deal with the circumstances of the moment, whatever they may be. The cool thing about picking up a girlfriend overseas is they can teach you new ways of looking at situations.

Some simpler ideas that my wife may be more likely to approve
A lifted chuck box or one put on top of folded down 3rd row seat

A heavier looking shelf system, pull whatever one needs out to picnic table or whatnot.

A simple open counter with shelves and small sink.
