Review summary
Provides extensive trip support
Tim communicates proactively, responds quickly, and is flexible with logistics. He provides a walk-around video, detailed instructions, local recommendations, and fully equips the van with items like cooking gear, a cooler, and binoculars.
Maneuverable and reliably powerful
Bluce Lee is a reliable V8 van, well-maintained and powerful, capable of long trips. Its compact size handles well in parking lots and pull-offs. Interior features include ample storage, window covers for privacy/insulation, device charging battery, and an inverter.

5.0We loved our time with Bluce Lee. We found him to be reliable and have everything we needed, even binoculars! Tim was great to communicate with also and the van was clean and well maintained. Highly recommend!

5.0Bluce Lee was an amazing van, and our home for a week. Driving the V8 beast around Alaska was a highlight. It went faultlessly and had everything we needed. Tim was super helpful and made the whole experience easy. Thankyou!

5.0The host was very helpful before, during and after our trip. He was very hospitable and had everything that we might have needed. The van was older, but ran great! A little squeaky, but the host had replaced some belts trying to fix it. Nothing worrisome at all! Lots of storage space in the van for a long trip. Had an awesome time driving it to get to 3 National Parks!!

5.0I loved it! I was a little worried about driving a large, older vehicle, but Bluce was super reliable and has a lot of power! I had everything I needed and Tim, the host, was communicative prior to my arrival to make sure I was ready for my trip. There was plenty of space in the vehicle and everything was easy to use. The bed was a little soft for me, so I inserted a thin, cheap yoga mat under the sheet which solved it. You can plug your phone to play music if your phone has a jack, so if you have an iphone, bring a reduction. Having a battery to charge devices overnight was great, as well as the invertor to charge my camera batteries. The window covers were great as I had to stealth camp on 2 occasions and was never bothered. It also insulates the vehicle a bit better, so it keeps temperature and there is less condensation in the morning. I am heading for another trip in another part of North America soon and I have to say Tim's van set the bar high for my needs when it comes to space, comfort, power and being compact enough for every situation. Thank you!

5.0I had an amazing time with this van for two weeks! It is very capable of long trips and is a great size which handles just fine in parking lots and roadside pull offs. Tim is very responsive and clearly wants his guests to make the most of their travels. I’d definitely rent this van again.
