Hector did an amazing job explaining all the features and benefits. He was super helpful and the vehicle was easy to drive and ran well. It was an excellent experience

Overall, it was a good trip. Here are some things to note about this particular vehicle, that are not on the website. First, the refrigerator will ONLY work when plugged in to a 50 amp plug at a campground. Otherwise, it does not work or stay cool/cold because it is not hooked up to the propane like most other RVs. We hope the refrigerator door will also be fixed so that it stays closed when turning corners. Also take note that only two of the overhead cupboards stay open on their own; we hope those are fixed for the next renter of the van. We often struggled to open the sliding side door from the outside and had to go back inside to open it from the inside. The bed is very comfortable as are the seats. It was easy to drive and maneuver. Also note that each time you fill up the diesel gas tank, you must put in DEF, one box of which was provided by the host, or many truck gas stations have DEF pumps. We didn’t use the toilet or shower because we were at campgrounds on our trip. The microwave works great when the RV is plugged in to a 50 amp plug. We are thankful for the opportunity to try out this Sprintervan and had lots of questions from people along our way asking about it. Ed was an accommodating host, and Hector, who was the main point person, responded promptly to our texts/questions along the route.

We enjoyed using the van and thought our hosts were great. They had really thought out the van layout and had provided great equipment for using it effectively.
