Absolutely made our trip!! We had friends visiting from out of town and the van was the perfect addition to ensure we could all go places together. We had every seat filled and every single person was still extremely comfortable and safe!! Beautiful vehicle and the rental process could not have been any smoother.
The 2017 Ford Transit that we rented was nice, clean, and in very good condition. This vehicle is excellent on gas. Even with the high gas prices now, the Ford Transit ran a long ways before we had to refill on fuel. Mr. Isaiah is a very nice person with great customer service. The previous person I was renting from, vehicle was not ready at rental time. Mr Isaiah was there to save our trip!. Anyone needing a Transit vehicle, I highly recommend renting from Mr. Isaiah. I most definitely will rent from him again.

Booking was simple, pickup was smooth, and even arranging a later drop-off was incredibly easy. Mr. KC was friendly, professional, and a pleasure to work with. We rented the van for a family road trip to Silverwood in Idaho, and everything went perfectly. The van was clean, spacious, comfortable, and gave us zero issues throughout our trip. I highly recommend booking with Mr. KC if you ever need a van rental. Excellent customer service and a great overall experience!
We rented the 15-passenger Mercedes Sprinter Van for a weekend trip from Seattle to Wenatchee for the Rufus Du Sol concerts at Gorge Amphitheatre (Jun.5-7), and it was absolutely perfect. With a group of 15 friends traveling together, comfort and reliability were a huge priority, and this van exceeded all expectations. The Sprinter was spotless, spacious, and incredibly comfortable for the drive. There was plenty of room for everyone and our belongings, making the trip stress-free and enjoyable. The vehicle drove smoothly, had excellent fuel efficiency for its size, and made the entire experience feel more like a luxury road trip than a rental. Pickup and drop-off were seamless, and the communication throughout the rental process was outstanding. Having everyone travel together added so much to the weekend, and the Sprinter became part of the experience itself. Between the winery stop, the concerts, and all the memories made along the way, this rental helped make an unforgettable weekend even better. Highly recommend to anyone planning a group trip, concert weekend, wedding shuttle, wine tour, or special event. We’ll definitely be renting again! 10/10 experience. Thank you for helping make our Rufus Du Sol weekend one to remember! 🎶🚐✨
The van was super helpful with our trip with all of our friends. The service was super nice and easy. I would recommend this van rental business to all my friends who need a van in Vegas.
Van rental was easy with multiple videos showing how to utilize the wheelchair strap down. Sophia was great to deal with. (5 stars) Turo website and app are TERRIBLE (0 stars) Even though I have used Turo in the past, every logon required me to call customer support to get out of Verification hell. Codes were never sent to my phone or email. Get your act together Turo!
Nick was an excellent host! The 2025 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described.

Communication was great, and the entire rental process was easy from start to finish. Highly recommend renting from Nick!
This van helped make our family reunion especially for our elderly relatives so much more memorable! At one time I had my mother, my two brothers, our wives and our children all in one vehicle. It will be a week we will never forget. I want to always work with you anytime I need to rent a van like this! Thank you!!
