We love this van, but are switching to a truck based camper, so we are sadly selling our van. This has been my daily driver & road trip van for the past 5 years. We've been across the country a couple times, and been on countless camping trips with the van.

Van is very reliable, starts every time, keeps up with highway traffic. Happy with the Subaru EJ22 engine. Handles mountain passes reasonably well, I try not to push it too hard when going through the mountains. Likes to cruise around 60/65 MPH. Awesome for camping, diesel furnace for warm nights.

The current list of issues is pretty small, but want to describe them all in detail. There is a knock when turning left and hitting the gas. Recently I had my mechanic look at it, and they said everything looks fine and did not recommend replacing the CV joints. Intermittent coolant overflow tank drips a little bit after parking. I've replaced the tank, but it still drips a little every once in a while. Otherwise, the cooling system works fine, don't have to add coolant, etc... No other leaks. Some seam rust, see photos. Tires will need replacing in the next 10K or so miles. This is my daily driver, these are the issues I was fine driving with.

Jan 2020 Update: Just got the van back from Rocky Mountain Westy. I had them take a look at an idle issue the Van had. Got new plugs, wires, and replaced a bad injector. Engine is running great! Also had a compression test done, engine is strong!
 - Cylinder 1 170 psi
 - Cylinder 2 165 psi
