That's a good thing to know. Seems like Kingman and surrounding area is a place where Vans seem to often break, and it is a bit remote. I've had other 'good' bad experiences around Kingman..Rented a car hauler there and brought home a 428 Ford '68 fastback. U-Haul wanted to make me rent a truck to tow it home, though I had my own F-250 4x4 powerstroke diesel truck...I found another rental guy there who rented me a U-haul flatbed anyhow...saved me a bundle.
