Meet Toad! He is an extra spacious, yet surprisingly nimble Ford Transit camper van who loves to take long trips through National Parks. Bring your bikes, climbing gear, and hiking poles to explore Montana.When you enter from the side, you’ll find a cozy living area fully equipped with a propane stovetop, bench seat for two, 360* swivel passenger seat, a deep sink with 30 gallons of fresh water, and a refrigerator/freezer combo; yes, that means ice cream.The lofted bed hosts a short-queen bed (situated longways for all the tall folks out there), two ventilation fans for the ultimate air flow, custom cabinetry for clothes and snacks, and a mega-garage to fit all that outdoor gear.Speaking of the garage, it was purpose built to travel with bikes, but the heavy-duty sliding tray makes accessing gear of all kinds a breeze. Through the garage you’ll find an A/C power port, as well as access to our outdoor hose with ambient temp water, great for a quick rinse off after a long hike, bike cleaning, or paddle board break down.If interested, we can send you a Vimeo link for a better look on the inside!What's includedEach rental includes fresh clean sheets, pillows, and blankets. For the kitchen, we supply cookware, utensils, propane for the stovetop, dish soap, sponge, and a pour-over coffee set up.Some extras include: one can of bear spray, slingshot, set of cards, basic first aid kit, and two camp chairs.Airport pickup from Missoula International available upon request with extra fee. Inflatable paddle boards also available upon request with extra fee.RecommendationsGlacier National Park is an absolute must-visit while in Montana. Toad is able to make it up Going-to-the-Sun Road, but I highly recommend parking at the base and taking advantage the awesome bus tour that the park offers.For a beautiful drive on your way north out of Missoula, it’s worth it use the Seeley-Swan corridor.I am also able to offer specific recommendations on great, hidden-gem campsites tailored to your route once you book. Feel free to reach out with any questions!Other things to noteAt 22 feet with a high roof, Toad cannot fit in drive-thrus or parking garages. Toad is not an off-road vehicle. While light gravel is fine, avoid chunky gravel, mud, and major potholes; off-road abuse will forfeit your security deposit. Please return the van with a full gas tank. Smoking is strictly prohibited ($500 fee), and remember to keep doors closed near campfires to prevent smoke smells.

Responsive and highly accommodating

James and Brooke were accommodating, offering fast communication, essential supplies like bear spray, and arranging late airport pickups.

Smooth and unintimidating driving

The Ford Transit drives smoothly like a full-size pickup, with a well-designed layout, off-grid capability, and an excellent refrigerator. It offers a comfortable, home-like adventure despite a non-working back fan.

This is our third van rental through Outdoorsy and our favorite van. Toad isn’t flashy, but has a straight forward, well designed layout, with everything you need for a comfortable adventure while being completely off grid. Brooke and James have thought of all the basics plus the best refrigerator that we’ve encountered. They were easy to work with and very accommodating. Ten days, almost 1,000 miles and everything worked perfectly = perfect vacation.

Today was absolutely fantastic!! I only gave 4 stars for mechanical, as the back fan over the bed did not work, however we did just fine without using it. James was an awesome host. There were plenty of stocked supplies including bear spray, which we couldn’t fly with so that was super helpful. Would rent again!!!

Rules and policies
The van is a high roof AND extended-length, which means he is 22 feet long and way too tall to park in any parking garage. Please be mindful around tight corners, parking lots, and narrow streets. The van is capable of handling light gravel forest roads, but chunky gravel and major potholes should be avoided to not bottom out the vehicle. Additionally, please steer clear of fresh, sticky mud to avoid getting stuck (2WD). Van must be returned with a full tank of gas. Otherwise, the cost of gas + $25 fee will be charged. No smoking, $500 cleaning fee if you smoke in the van. No festivals. Sorry, no pets because one of us is very allergic.
