I had custom cabinets built in when the walls and ceiling were insulated and panels installed, and replaced the carpet floor with marine grad subfloor with high quality vinyl for easy cleaning (with door mats just inside to wipe boots). For me, the built-in cabinets were worth it, rather than buying plastic stuff – one was a cabinet bench that I used to boost myself up to the bed area (I made a cushion covered with marine grade vinyl for part of it), for instance, and a cabinet with a slide out for the porta-potty, along with wall cabinets.
The things I really used were the lights, the bench, and the porta-potty built into one of the base cabinets, besides sleeping in the gooseneck on a mattress (needed to be on the thin side, to not take away too much from the headroom).
Like others, I cooked (if necessary) outside – tended to take things that didn’t require cooking – and used high quality coolers that kept ice for days. I started out sleeping in a tent, or on the back seat of my truck (I’m fairly small) when I’d go places with my horses, and the weekend package was basically just a much nicer tent for me. I spent most of my time outside it, riding, caring for the horses, or hanging with friends.
My good friends, with whom we would caravan our rigs, had a four horse with 8 foot short wall LQ, and didn’t really use the kitchen, either.
