My girlfriend had never been camping before; after having gone to Yosemite in this camper, I worry I might have turned her into a life-long glamper. The van came with everything we needed. The bed was very spacious and comfortable, there was a lot of storage, and cooking on the gas range was great - we made several lovely meals. The van drove very well and was easy to handle. A couple of things to think about: the bed is placed very high in the cabin, so if you have any mobility issues it might be a bit of a challenge. The grey water tank is on the smaller side, so make sure you check it frequently if you can't drain grey water underneath the van (like when you're in a national park).
