Capture the magic of 1978 all over again.

Hey, welcome to Vanland! Come on in the shed, yeah, we’re gonna give you the full late Seventies experience! That’s right, it’s the theme park that teaches… with fun!

And there, that’s a mini-fridge that holds a few bottles of soda and has a hiding place for… um, oregano. And on the floor there is a Cohesion 14” Twin Air Bed with built-in remote pump.

You’d spend money on speakers and an eight track, and then you’d travel the road, living wild and free and sometimes spending the night in a gas station parking lot or on some unowned wilderness… no, kid, we don’t have that now, it’s all been turned into strip malls, mostly.

Yes, the Cohesion 14” Twin Air Bed was very comfortable indeed, and since gas was about seventy cents a gallon, a person could totally afford to… no, I’m not making that up! With twenty bucks you could fill a whole tank and still have enough for lunch! That’s just part of the magic that.. wait, where are you going? Hey, come back! This is really how your grandparents used to live!
