5.0Bruce was great to work with and the vehicle was perfect. We had an amazing trip. We ended up needing an extra day and Bruce (through Outdoorsy) was easy to communicate with. I will definitely be renting through Bruce and Outdoorsy again!

5.0Bruce was a great host - he was quick to respond & very helpful in guiding me through the process with "Ruby" Rental. We went a little less camping style & rented Ruby for a 50th celebration to enjoy cruising in (a nostalgic vehicle brand or the bday man!) Ruby was in amazing condition & the interior was so well taken care of. It made our experience enjoyable. Hope to try again for actual camping!

5.0BRUUUUCE! He is the best! Such a nice guy, made sure I knew the ins and outs of the van before hitting the road. I ran over some debris and blew a tire (freak thing, not the van's fault), and he was so kind and helpful about it. And Ruby is AWESOME. She's stocked with everything you need, the sleep sitch is super comfy, and honestly I felt so cool driving her around. 10/10, would recommend.
