I figured with my owners, Matt and Kate (very cute couple, BTW) so busy, I would take a shot at writing this myself, because who knows me better than me?
I AM Awesome! I was built after both Matt, a professional landscape photographer and firefighter/paramedic and Kate, a professional equestrian rider and dog groomer (told you they were busy) spent many, many nights in their self built van. They realized what was important to them and I was built with this in mind.
I am built on the longest, tallest Transit made and my AWD system, lift kit and all terrain tires makes me pretty sure footed.
Good looks are one thing but it's what's inside that counts and my innards are glorious. With a hot shower, sink, 2 fridge/freezer units, dry flush toilet, microwave, Webasto cabin heater, swivel seats, plenty of batteries and solar, 35 gallons of water, induction cooktop, Maxx air fan, loads of space in the custom cabinets, Murphy bed and a walkable roofdeck and custom insulated window covers, a 2000W Honda generator for a back-up if all else fails, a propane fire pit, as well as a blackout curtains (I think you get the idea), loads of time and money were spent to get me to this level.
As you can imagine I'm very comfortable in lots of settings. From camping in the parking lot of your favorite ski destination for fresh tracks in the morning, or the coast to spend sunset on the roof deck with a chair and beverage. To my personal favorite, boondocking in the out of the way places to allow for a full Ctrl+Alt+Del reset that most of us need far more often than we would like to admit
Choose your gear and the time of year to unplug, recharge and enjoy what I, Murphy, have to offer.Did I mention I was awesome...yeah I know I did.What's includedI provide bedding, pillows and towels. For the kitchen, pots and pans, plates, bowls, cups and coffee mugs, a French press and some staple spices. as well as kitchen utensils, can and bottle opener, corkscrew, spatula, you know kitchen drawer stuff and misc. things like toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags.
I also have some ways to pass the time between adventures including a bluetooth projector and screen for movie night either inside or outside the van and poker and checkers set.RecommendationsGet out and see the incredible northwest, from the Cascade and Olympic mountains, the Columbia River gorge to the hundreds of miles of rugged coastline, not to forget the high desert. The amount of diversity in such a relatively small place is quite frankly hard to believe. This van will also come with the Oregon state park pass as well as the Washington discovery pass.Other things to noteWith all the time and money my owners spent on me they are still in the honeymoon phase of ownership, so pretty please with sugar on top, take good care of me.

Review summary
Matt is quick to respond
He consistently answered questions promptly, provided thorough tours at pickup from his art gallery, and was available for support throughout trips.
Easy to drive and maneuver
Guests noted it was easy to drive, park, and navigate back roads. Equipped with AWD and rugged tires, it's capable of off-road adventures and boon docking.

5.0We had a great experience driving around Oregon! Pick-up and drop-off were easy. It was at an art gallery. The van had been thoroughly cleaned. You had everything you could need, including sheets, blankets, pillows, towels, silverware, and dishes. Matt responded quickly to any questions via text. The van is fairly easy to drive. I enjoyed how easy it was to use all of the amenities. It was as simple as flipping a switch. We also had plenty of battery power for nights when we didn't have hookups. We didn't need to use the shower or dry-flush toilet because we stayed at campgrounds, but I appreciated having that option. I also loved the van's layout. It worked well for two people. There was plenty of storage for your jackets and clothes. I'd definitely recommend it.

5.0Matt was great and easy to work with. The camper van was well taken care of, easy to drive and park and as advertised in Matt's post. Lots of extras included like camping chairs, small table, and gas propane fire pit. You will have a wonderful time in Murphy!

5.0Murphy is the real deal. AWD Ecoboost with K02s means you can actually get off the beaten path — we boon docked our way through Oregon and Washington without a single worry. Hot shower, solar, generator, roof deck, kitchen — everything worked perfectly the entire trip. Matt was easy to work with and the van was immaculate. Don't hesitate, just book it. 10/10 🌲🚐
