1985 Volkswagen Vanagon
Say hello to Chewie! Our classic VW Westfalia. He’s a burly ‘85 Westy that goes opposite of light speed. We’ve upgraded him with a few luxuries, and as always — stocked full of top notch camping gear.Full featured, the van includes a "pop top", 2 beds to sleep 4 adults comfortably, propane stove, an aluminum cooler, sink, portable heat, outdoor camping table, a closet with plenty of storage, and those killer bucket seats that swivel! Like the rest of the Westy's we all love, Chewie is fully equipped to meet all your camping and adventure needs. We've modernized him with a bluetooth stereo, solar panel + auxiliary battery to keep your gadgets charged during your adventure, and he’s also working with an Automatic Transmission and power steering so there's no need to learn how to operate a stick shift or be a professional arm wrestler.Chewie is perfect for a long family trip or just a quick getaway for a couple to a nearby beach or National Park. We hope you will enjoy him for your next adventure as much as our family does! Pro tip: If you pass another VW, be sure to wave. Peace signs, shakas, and the always classic rock on formations work best ( | | ), but any old gesture will do. It’s a tradition amongst VW van drivers like you :)Was ist inbegriffenThis rental includes 100 miles per day with additional miles charged at $0.50 per mile. While this van is perfectly capable of traveling 300+ miles per day, it is best to keep your daily mileage under 200 miles, especially in hot weather. If you do need to travel extensive periods in a day, please take a few rests for you and the van.Included Equipment:

Keep in mind that when going over mountain passes or steep grades it will slow down to maybe 40-45 mph. This is normal and part of the journey. Please do not push it too hard, Chewie is just telling you that you need to "slow life down" 😊

We had a great time kickin it old school with Chewie up and down the California coast. The van is really clean, well equipped, well maintained, and had all the extras we needed for camping and cooking. Thanks Anthony for being a great host!
Antwort von Anthony
Thanks Carsten! We appreciate you choosing Chewie to part of your trip visiting back home in California. We hope you have a safe trip back to Poland!

What a dope experience. Driving along highway 1 with the windows down and the oldies playing was a gosh darn delight. Chewie drove way better than we imagined. Really smooth, no trouble going up the hills down to Big Sur. And please make sure you honk the horn. It's adorable. We slept in the pop-up top which would have been perfect if we had brought a thick blanket to sleep on. Anthony told us the bottom was a lot cushier but we loved sleeping up top. Seriously, an old westfalia is the best way to camp. Would rent again!
Antwort von Anthony
Thanks Darcie! We would love to have you both again! Maybe next time Charlie can join!
