Great way to spend a short trip!
My boyfriend and I rented the truck for our quick weekend Costa Rica trip so we didn’t feel like we needed to stay in one place because we could stay wherever we ended up each day. It was a great way to travel the coast and the truck was amazing on the not so great off roads. We ran into some questionable routes through the mountains and this 4 wheel drive truck got us through it. Jacob was amazing and answered any questions and was able to drop off and pick up truck from airport no problem which was ideal and worth every penny and made our trip more seamless since it was so short. Sleeping in the van was great, the AC is a monster and it got cold very quickly. No complaints other than staying a little longer. :) If you are looking to have an adventure I’d say renting this truck/van is ideal and a safe way to go! 10/10 highly recommend!
