Selling our 85 Burro - Posting here first! $4800

I haven't posted our Burro on Craigslist yet, but when I do, I'll add a link.

We are driving up I-5 in Oregon and have already seen two Casitas and an Escape - which was being pulled by an Escape, I might add!

Has anyone tried Fasade or other Faux tin ceiling tiles?

I'm thinking about getting some of these Fasade ceiling tiles for the carpet strip in our Burro. They are 24" wide, which would just span the gap (it's 23" wide) and I think leave enough on either...
