Aspen Custom Vans 'Boxcar' - 2019 Promaster Campervan for a Couple!
Excellent
Pet friendly
21+
Sleeps 2
12 ft. long
What's includedWe provide a fully stocked kitchen for two (utensils, cookware, crockery), 2 x camp chairs and a propane stove with one propane canister to get you started.
We ask that you bring your own bedding.
RecommendationsAspen and the Roaring Fork Valley is the perfect jumping off point to see the Western United States.
Locally, our valley is home to some of the most gorgeous hiking, biking and fishing adventures around. A short drive over Independence Pass takes you to Twin Lakes and Buena Vista, a rafter/kayakers paradise. You're then only a few hour drive to Santa Fe through the gorgeous San Luis valley.
A little further afield, we are a 3.5 hour drive from Moab and Canyon country, so many of our renters start a southwest trip there. Moab, Bryce, Zion and Grand Escalante make a good round trip route over 4 - 6 nights.
Further afield, you could make it to Jackson Hole in about 9 hours and the Wyoming and Yellowstone wilderness your perfect playground for a 7 - 14 day trip.
Other things to noteWater is only available for summer rentals.
There is no hot water available.
This van does NOT have a heater so if you are renting in the shoulder seasons, you will need to bring appropriate bedding.
You may drive the van on graded dirt roads only. You may not go off road as there is not enough clearance.
Pets are welcome, but if we have to spend more than an hour cleaning dog hair off of the bed, we will charge an extra cleaning fee.
No festivals, please.
Definitely no smoking.
We ask you to return the van in the condition you found it. There are cleaning supplies provided. No need to wash the outside.
A note about waiving our minimum rental nights: our minimum rental is 3 nights. We cannot accommodate renters for less. Please do not ask us to do so as it puts us in an uncomfortable position to have to say no.

5What an amazing trip! We took 'Boxcar' to Moab for a fall weekend and had a wonderful time. The van drives great and has all the amenities you need for a relaxing and enjoyable weekend of camping. I'm 6'1" and slept great in the wildly comfortable bed too! 100% recommend you take this van on your next adventure, unless I have it rented already!

5We took a 6 night trip through the Colorado Rockies and boxcar was incredible. It has absolutely everything you need, and it is beautifully done. Kimbo was fantastic and made the whole process super easy. The interior is very spacious for 2 people and has lots of storage. It’s equipped with fridge, solar, and water. Lighting even had dimmers!! We were impressed and pleasantly surprised with all elements. Our experience of ‘van life’ in boxcar was absolutely incredible and far surpassed our expectations. We are totally convinced that a van is the best way to travel. It offers simple get-up-and-go and bad weather is cozi with everything you need inside with you. You can get into the wilderness so easily and everything is wrapped in adventure. We flew into Denver and to pick up the van was 2 very affordable bus tickets. Get yourself to the mountains- it’s TOTALLY worth it. If you are thinking of hiring boxcar, book it before anyone else does!!

5The Boxcar is perfectly sized and appointed for two. You can parallel park the van in a regular parking space, the bed is super comfortable, and the thing drove like a champ over a two week tour of the Pacific Northwest. Kimbo and Jason were super easy to work with and very accomodating in our picking up and dropping off of the van. We would rent again.

We are generally quite flexible with enough advance notice. We will not do hand offs or returns in the dark under any circumstances. Get in touch and we are always happy to try and make it work!

We do not provide bedding. Please bring your own. We find that most people prefer to do this anyway.
