In Illinois, an "RV" must have several things present to qualify for registering as an RV. The first, most important, is that the "living area" must be accesible from the drivers compartment. This raises problems witih a regular box/cube/straight truck. In the living area the requiremenets are as follows :
A self-contained motor vehicle, not used commercially, designed or permanently converted to provide living quarters for recreational,
camping or travel use, with direct walk-through access to the living quarters from the driver’s seat. Such vehicles must include at
least four of the following:
a) A cooking facility with an on-board fuel source;
b) A gas or electric refrigerator;
c) A toilet with exterior evacuation;
d) A heating or air conditioning system with an on-board power or fuel source separate from the vehicle engine;
e) A potable water supply system that includes at least a sink, a faucet, and a water tank with an exterior service supply connection;
f) A 110-125 volt electric power supply.
Finally, if you planned to convert a BUS, it can not be yellow ( I.E. School Bus).
