Great van for a family camping trip! We had 3 adults and 5 kids plus all our gear, and the Transit 350 handled everything with ease. Tons of space inside for passengers and luggage, comfortable seats, and it drove smoothly through Colorado's mountain roads, no issues with hills or curves. Perfect fit for a larger group. Highly recommend for road trips or camping adventures!

We rented the Ford Transit for our family trip, and it was absolutely perfect for our group of 12, including four kids. The van was spacious and impeccably clean, offering more than enough room for everyone. There was plenty of space for all our luggage, strollers, and the extra gear that comes with traveling with young children. The ride was smooth, comfortable, and had plenty of room for everyone to spread out, which made the long drives much more pleasant. The host was wonderful—communication was prompt, and they were super accommodating with pickup and drop-off. Overall, this Ford Transit was a game-changer for our trip, making it stress-free and comfortable. If you’re traveling with a large group or family, I highly recommend this vehicle.
