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!

Eric has excellent communication and the van was very clean. I rented it to use during our family reunion and he even had 6 car seat/boosters available. I would rent with Eric again, he made the whole process very easy. My nephew said the best part of the vacation was the van!
