Whether you are looking for a van for all your future road-trip vacations, living in it full-time, or an international traveller, Fred is road-tested and proven to be a reliable companion!
Because he was one of our rentals, maintenance and repairs were always done on time and with the best parts. Extreme care was put into Fred, as having a renter breakdown on their trip can be extremely costly. Everything you need to get you on the road immediately is included. The current mileage is at 241,000km, but will be 25X,XXX by the end of the season. Fred is a 2009 Ford E-250 extended cargo van with a 5.4 Litre Gas engine.
Fred will continue to be in our rental fleet until October 2025. After the season is done transfer of ownership/purchase will be available. If you are looking to purchase, a 10% non-refundable deposit can be put down to reserve the sale.

This video was filmed in 2023, but you’ll get the jist of what is in the van and a better visual of all the features and amenities. The video partly focuses on myself as a business owner, so you may skip some parts.

Before you make a significant investment, it may be worthwhile to rent a campervan. This might be from Q Campervans or another company. Either way, we recommend renting for at least a weekend to see how you will like it, prior to living/vacationing in your own for an extended period of time!
