I don't think anyone is really satisfied with their van, there are always compromises to be made but each person is an individual and what suits some may not suit another. To completely satisfy everyone is just not possible. You choose the van based upon you needs and desires.
Some things you change some things you live with.
Hope this helps, good luck.
