Had an amazing time with our pups in Joshua Tree with Chalky! Kept us safe and warm from the 22mph winds that were blowing upon our arrival. Had a little issue with the sink (slight malfunction with the button to turn it on), however, aside from that, Chalky drove great, and had ample room for two humans and two dogs. Would definitely rent from Dylan again and take Chalky out for another adventure!
Chalky was the perfect chariot for our coastal excursion. Wonderfully customized by Dylan, everything worked as advertised and was as comfortable and convenient as can be. Dylan's a great guy, too. Really on top of communication and making sure we had everything we needed for our trip. This baby will turn some heads for sure; you will not drive longer than 10 minutes before someone leans out of their car and yells, "RAD, BRUH." A unique and fun adventure with Chalky!
We had the BEST time in Chalky. Dylan and his girlfriend were the sweetest hosts that tailored the van to our needs with their new package upgrades! It pretty much fits in a normal parking space so we didn’t have many restrictions when it came to exploring different areas. It worked out perfectly for our trip and the communication with Dylan was outstanding. Would definitely recommend!
LOVED hosting you two! You’re a delightful couple. We only wish you lived closer so we could see more of you! Thank you so much for renting with us!

I had an A+ experience with Dylan and Chalky the Van. Dylan was super communicative and friendly. He accommodated to all my requests, and was going above and beyond to make sure that my experience will be unique. He set up a rack for my surf board and delivered to me the Van because I couldn't make it to where he was.
I spent 6 days in Chalky the Van driving along the pacific coast line, surfing,…
High praise from an A+ renter like yourself! Thank you for choosing us to share your great vibes and amazing adventure! We hope to see you and your surf board again soon! Thanks again for the amazing pics!
