This was my first time driving a van and living in a van! I’m so thankful that I got to do it in Hawai’i and that Wilson trusted me to rent out Big Bertha. I could tell he really cared about his van as well, which is a good sign for maintenance. My favorite part was being able to park the van by the beach, surf and come back to a bed. Or just being able to drive the bed to the beachfront and chill, or that I could just crack open the back doors to watch the sunrise over the mountains. I knew that parking the van might be tricky in HI and on my first night I got a parking ticket by Diamond head. No knock, just woke up to a ticket. Parking and sleeping in the north shore is much better. Would definitely recommend Big Bertha and Wilson for a van trip!

We loved having this van on Oahu. The bed is not huge, but we’re both about 6’ and we were comfortable enough.

The van worked perfectly and provided a safe cozy place to stay for our adventures around Oahu. Bed was snug but comfortable for myself and my bf ( 5'9" & 6'). Shower was warmer than the beach showers and easy to use. Rooftop stargazing is a MUST! Wilson was flexible with drop-off and pick-up making our travel days less stressful. We added on the surf board and polaroid camera too which made our trip even better. Would definitely rent Wilson's van again!

Wilson went above and beyond to make sure we made the most out of our trip, he was incredibly helpful with ideas and spots.
Sure big Bertha is pretty rough round the edges but what she lacks in aesthetics she makes up for in grunt, she'll go anywhere. There's no wifi as advertised but this only adds to the charm of keeping you tuned out and dropped into the true oahu experience of street food, barefoot wave junkies and bumpin atmosphere.
She's a thirsty rig but as you can imagine she monstered up any hill and cruised beautifully along the coastal highways.
I felt safe sleeping in the back and there's an actual safe for peace of mind. The fridge was perfect for an ice cold beer after doing not much at all all day.
All in all wouldn't change the experience for exactly what it was. Thankyou Wilson, you legend.

Tuvimos una muy buena experiencia con la van. Tenía todo lo necesario. Will fue muy atento y con comunicación fluida, nos ayuda con todas nuestras dudas y nos dió tips sobre donde dormir, comer, y que visitar. Recomendamos!!!

Rain water was pouring in from the sides on both driver and passenger side. There were wires hanging in the van everywhere. Felt like a safety issue especially when it was raining.
