Super fun/cool sprinter with all the amenities one could want! Easy to drive and was not a hassle in busy/traffic filled areas

If you’re looking for a van that truly has everything you need to have a great trip without constantly hooking up to shore power, refilling and emptying your tanks, going to different campsites for showers, James’ van is the perfect rig. I love the fact that you have the option to be off-grid for a good amount of time and not have the anxiety of losing power or water. We took a quick coastal trip from Bodega Bay to Mendocino then back to Sac and El Capitan handled the curvy, rainy roads of Highway 1 and snowy/icy mountain roads of Highway 20 like a dream. Powerful when you needed it to be, while smooth enough to be comfortable. The van sure is beautiful too! I found myself admiring it every time I walked back to it while parked.

Vann provided a great Majestic Thor for our use. The unit ran well. Would highly recommend to some other party in the future.
