Guest review behind this vibe (5 / 5, January 2023):
> My friend and I shared this van for a week in November 2022 and what a trip it was! Brian took lots of care to explain how everything works and what it’d be like to drive - you can tell he’s passionate about these vans and that he wanted to share that excitement with us. Based on our needs, Brian took the two back seats out before we left so that we’d have more room. He also gave us great advice on traffic timelines and finding campsites since it was our first time doing that in California. The van was a lot of fun to drive, and everything works as expected. It’s in great condition! Would not hesitate for a second to take one of these vans again :)
