Francis (Joe) and Vera were amazing!! Even before the start of the trip, they patiently answered all of my questions and on the day of our trip, sat with us to go over all the information we needed to have a great time. This included learning about the Rv, as well as general tips and tricks of RV life, and beautiful drives and overlooks we should be sure to see on our trip. To be honest, at first, as novice Rv users, we were nervous about driving this thing, but as soon as we took our first turn it felt so natural. The engine was so powerful you forget that you are driving a house! It was good on the ups and downs of mountainous Colorado and we were able to even parallel park it in city centers! It is also very photogenic! Overall we had an amazing time and I would definitely recommend to all those considering an RV adventure.

Spent a wonderful week in the Rockies in the Leaping Lion! She’s an older vehicle, though well maintained, and therefore has a harder time on those steep inclines. The well appointed kitchen made cooking a breeze! We loved this trip and are so happy we rented this RV.

While Francis was affable and made sure the RV was well-stocked with camping supplies, we were disappointed that the listing photos were deceptive because of the run-down appearance and the shaking of the front-end of the RV making it unsafe to drive when we picked it up. There was a crack along the entire length of window above the cab which leaked and there was back-end damage of right rear end with bungie cords holding the right-side rear bumper together. Since the sprayer for the toilet leaked, we were afraid the shower would leak also so, we didn't use the shower in the RV. The RV also does not have a bottom fold out step which made it a little difficult to step down out of it. There was no awning for the hot sunny days at the RV park. We did return it a day early due to being called into work at the last minute and brought it back cleaner than when we received it.

Francis Joe’s answer

Well it is a Vintage RV NOT brand new. There isn’t any rust or dings other than damage to the back bumper which with COVID it has been impossible to fix. The CRACKED NOT BROKEN window in the upper bunk area doesn’t leak. The toilet and instant tank free shower works perfectly.

I cannot say enough good things about Francis and Vera. Our family of four were first time RVers, and they really put our minds at ease. Any question while on our journey was answered quickly either by phone call or text. The RV was very nice, clean and had everything we needed. We were even given a ride to the airport after returning the rv!! Thanks again for a great vacation! -Sarah, Adrian, Rigel and Bronson

Francis was a great owner/host. He was very accommodating for our trip and was very easy to get in contact with. The pickup and drop off was great because he delivered the RV to us and gave us a ride to the airport once we dropped it off. This was our first drivable RV experience and was a great learning adventure. It does show its age in some areas, but that is to be expected and is made up for by the savings you'll get over similar Class C's.

Our family of four had an amazing trip in the Leaping Lion! Five states and more than 2500 miles over 14 days and enough memories for a lifetime. Francis was very responsive anytime I had a question while we were on the road and we loved the camp chairs, outdoor stove, and the many other "extras" that were provided at no charge. The Born Free name is well recognized in RV/Campground circles and we got many compliments along our route. Although the vehicle is a little older than many we considered, it is easy to drive and we always felt safe in the Leaping Lion and would definitely rent it again! Thank you Francis and Vera!
