Classsic Vw pop top that fits into a normal parking space ( for occasional Urban Camping) as well as true camp grounds! This vehicle was brought over from Germany and I am the third owner for 20 years now. The engine has been rebuilt and replaced one time. It does have a propane stove and tank but I have never used it because my VW mechanic strongly suggests ALL Cooking be completed outside the van on the small grill we provide. It does have ice storage and a small cooler. The heater and AC have not been used but we do provide linens, blankets and sleeping bags which are washed following each rental
In essence it is air cooled and does well Near the ocean but can go into the desert (inland) but best to drive during the night and early morning. It does go 85mph when you need a little extra push to get past a big rig but cruises comfortably at 65-75 mph.
Other things to noteThe biggest thing to remember is that you have to be able to drive a stick shift to rent this van!

Hey,
I live in California for the weather and I am addicted to surfing.... I have used this van to play tennis tournaments all over California and was ironically raised in an even older model (1980) the Germans made great tanks and Vans! Finally, cruising, camping and waking up to the sound of waves hitting the beach never gets old!

Trent’s answer

Pretty shocked after reading my first one star review. Ken began messaging me months ago and never really seemed to have a plan for his trip. Of course, he already had a discount code but wanted an even bigger 200$ discount code. Then he wanted a free airport pick up which at times I do because most of the people I’ve rented out my van to have been super fun to meet… and yes I have rented through Outdoorsy on a few trips myself…
I highly encouraged him to stay near the coast of CA in late June as you can read in the bio. He really wanted to take it Mexico but the insurance doesn’t work down there then he decided he wanted to go to Zion in Utah which takes you dead across the Mojave desert in late June which isn’t the best option in an air cooled anything. On seeing his two high school emo daughters he said that they didn’t want to go to beaches of San Diego (well let’s just say they didn’t have beach bodies… his words not mine)
A van like mine which I have owned since 1998 is always a work in process most of the stove kitchen propane etc is in tact because I haven’t used it, yes the carpet and curtains etc… are original because that’s the ones that came it and they are in great condition and cleaned after every rental. Yes the linens and sleeping bags which go straight into a modern washing machine after every rental… I guess he figured the linens might have whippett hair!? Because he met my dog!? I am in the process of adding Solar and my next engine will likely be electric…but I have a small generator that jump starts the engine, inflates tires and even charges devices (gasp…)
So let’s get to Ken’s driving and all I can say is what a spaz!? He assured me that he had driven a stick shift but it had been ten years and the fact that van is a stick shift is why a lot of yahoos and millennials tend to not rent it. Yes the van was stalling but only when you come to a complete stop …. Not while it was moving… needless to say I paid the mobile mechanic 150$ and then Ken-and his daughters drive it National City (the ghetto of San Diego) They leave the van without communicating that they had rented a different van all of which I had to figure out and I have to UBer another expense, provided him with a full refund. Finally, drove the van back to my house without it stalling AT ALL. Glad he was able to secure a good vehicle for his fantasy to live out the movie which I haven’t seen “Driving
…..”.
The life lessons just keep coming….

Wow! Trent and the Amazing Green Bus were both amazing. This weekends trip rates as one of the best family camp trips we’ve ever taken. The VW drive smoothly and had zero issues. The sleeping was so good and accommodated us perfectly. Truly a killer experience!! This VW is forever a part of our family ❤️💕🏄‍♂️⛺️

Trent was very accommodating and helped us enjoy our time with the rental. It's not an easy vehicle to use and he was great about showing us how to use it and giving us guidance on the area.
