Nikita and his van were amazing. Nikita took his time to walk me through the functions and made sure I had all the information before setting off. I took the van out to Lone Pine and Whitney portal for 3 nights and 4 days with no worries. It performed extremely well. I had enough power with the solar and enough water to last the trip without worry. I very much enjoyed the trip in this well built van. This listing is now saved as a favorite and will certainly rent again.
