My biggest fear is someone breaking into my Van and stealing my stuff while I'm at work. Homeless people have smashed windows and stolen tools out of my co workers truck. I'm debating as to whether to keep my build simple, leave the curtain open and hide valuables or close the curtain and let them wonder what goodies are hidden back there. I guess I could build a lockable cabinet that would be hard to break into and put a special film on the windows that makes it harder to shatter them. I'm not as worried about a night break in because then I can choose a safer spot and I'll have second amendment protection.

I wonder if the work trucks had logos on the side that would indicate *I'm full of expensive tools* 🤔 I mean, it happens! That's why we get insurance. I think the less that's seen the better, the less on the outside, the less expensive things look the better. Totally get not feeling good leaving the van behind, but if someone sees what you've got in there, they might be more likely to smash and grab.
