Drives great, adaptive cruise control is helpful. Unlimited miles means no worries about distance. James answers all questions quickly before and during the rental.

My wife and I had an amazing time on our trip with Sid's van. The van was clean and very thoughtfully designed. It was easy to drive and had everything we needed to make our trip enjoyable. Sid was very communicative and professional. We would highly recommend renting this van and are looking forward to doing so again in the future.
