NOt a rant at all, actually, as I can’t see the pictures I thought Harry’s van was a true weekender as you described. As it is a carat that is a nice interior but not a good set up for parents and kids. Better for two or one person. The true weekender is a very nice set up for sure. The carat with bed though is a very nice useful van. Fingers crossed Harry sells this one and then gets a pop top to fit the family!
