Review summary
Highly Responsive and Flexible Host
Khaled is consistently praised for his excellent communication, responsiveness, and flexibility regarding pick-up and return times. He provides thorough rundowns and suggestions, ensuring guests feel well-prepared for their trip.
Solid Driving, Manages Varied Terrain
The 1997 van is described as solid, reliable, and comfortable to drive, handling highways and mountains well, averaging 13-18 mpg. It's compact enough for city parking. However, some guests noted the fuel gauge, speedometer, and odometer can be intermittent, and the bed is short for those over 5'8"-5'10". The mattress is also thin.

5.0We had the most incredible trip to the Oregon Coast and it was only made better by this little van. It was our first time in the area and first time renting on Outdoorsy. The rental and pick up process was super easy and Khaled made sure to give us a solid run down of the van so we felt very comfortable hitting the road. Driving along the coast was stunning and we felt the van offered a beautiful panoramic view. We managed to figure out the bluetooth sound system (thank you youtube) to maximize our good vibes. There was so much storage space for all our gear, and it was such a cool experience to explore around and have everything with us in the van. I typically get tired of driving but I found it was so enjoyable riding around in this thing, it felt like an experience in itself and I really got to take in the sights from the driver’s seat. The bed was cozy, however I would recommend bringing extra blankets for cold nights and we found it more comfortable to add another duvet on top of the mattress as it can be a little thin. I also agree with other reviews that the bed may be a little short for anyone over 5’8. The return process was also seamless and Khaled was very responsive via messages and flexible in terms of timing. We loved it so much we can’t wait to come back! Many core memories made, thank you ❤️

5.0Khaled was extremely communicative and lenient with our trip plans. He gave us suggestions as well as properly prepared us for anything that may arise during our trip. The van worked perfectly and helped fulfill one of our dream trips! We will definitely book again whenever we are back in Oregon!

5.0This van was super fun! It got us through our hot springs road trip with no issues. In fact, it made us want to get a van of our own. We got about 18 mpg which was better than I expected. Bed may be a little short for anyone taller than 5”9 but it worked for us. Would rent again!

5.0This van is such a great deal! Great gas mileage, no weird smell, super communicative yet chill host. Cozy vibe, clean bedding, and comfortable to drive. Khaled was so gracious and polite even though I basically returned the van in the middle of the night. Loved that it was roomy inside yet compact enough to fit in a regular parking spot. First Outdoorsy experience.
