This recently converted van located in Southeast Austin is chock full of goodies. SO many that I've detailed them further below.The van is a 2012 Mercedes totally built out in the last year. Well maintained with a number of aged-out parts recently replaced.The vehicle is 24 feet long, from the bullbar to the rear step, and 9.5 feet tall, from the bottom of the tires to the top of the rooftop A/C.
The only festival that this vehicle is not suited for is burning man as the playa will do irreparable damage to it.

RecommendationsI've taken this thing all over the western U.S. in the past six months. California, Oregon, Washington, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Kansas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, in both hot and cold weather. So, it's a pretty capable vehicle.Other things to noteI'll provide more detailed do's and don'ts and tips I've learned from practice, such as:
- Driving tips, since you've got a lot of weight behind you
- Internet access
- Tips for things that could come up in your travels, like refilling DEF fluid, where different things can be found
Also note, I've replaced the following parts in the last year:
- Suspension (front and back), tires, alternator, all belts and pulleys, battery, A/C blower, fuses/resistors, headlight/turn/brake bulbs, and more.

The van was dirty very dirty. I had to clean the van entirely inside and out and get an oil change the first day. The second day the DEF tank filler tube fell off due to poor mounting it looked DIY. I then had to pull off on the side of the road cover myself in DEF fluid, trying to hook… I don’t know if anyone has ever gotten DEF them but IT BURNS. After getting into California, the van broke down due to emissions took it to AutoZone. It was permanent codes, obviously has been a permanent issue. The van was in limp mode from that point forward speed was about 65 miles an hour and it took about a minute to get there. The van was pulling hard to the right after further inspection. I noticed that the subframe was cracked in half causing the inside of the front right tire completely bald…. This is a hazard this needs to be fixed before rented again. Towards the end of my trip coolant sensor went out, causing the van and complete limp mode. I then crawled it into Portland as a favor to the host. .03 miles away from the mechanic shop. The alternator went out van died. I had to push the van down the hill and skate it into the mechanic shop.

The vehicle cleanliness and expectations set from the pictures and descriptions were not accurate. The lights did not work, the projector did not work, the vehicle did not come with wifi. Disappointing as we booked this over the other rentals for wifi and the projector. The operator is not the owner listed on the app. He disclosed that he recently bought this van from the owner of this account. Overall we were still happy with the ride, but amenities should be updated.

Evan is a great host and answered any questions we had! The van was beyond our expectations and he did a great job on this build! The van had everything we could have needed for our trip and it was so relaxing and comforable!

We had a great 10-day road trip w Evan’s van. He did a great job providing support, both walking through everything before we left and then also being super-responsive when we texted him w questions while we were traveling. The van was easy to drive, easy to maneuver on the road. While camping there was just what you needed (spacious seating areas, Lagun table, fold-up counter space, fridge, oven, camping stove, lots of outlets, windows that were tinted for privacy, a/c, and Evan even included a Yeti cooler for extra refrigeration we wanted)

The van is great, the build is simple enough to use without much confusion while also being very comfortable and appealing. Host is very friendly and helpful and communicative. Glad we ended up picking this van, had a great time.
