El Monte RV review

El Monte RV is a long-running motorhome rental company that also rents a camper van under its Mighty RV value brand. The Mighty Class B is 20 to 22 feet long, sleeps 2 adults and 2 small children on a rooftop bed and a Murphy bed, and has a wet bath, sink, stove top and refrigerator, though no microwave. That makes it more self-contained than minivan campers. El Monte RV runs pickups in cities including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Denver, Orlando, Miami, New York, Chicago, Dallas and Seattle, and offers 24-7 roadside assistance. Its deals page is active: AAA members get 10% off and 50 free miles per day, a winter special cuts nightly rates by 20%, and one-way specials save up to 90% with no one-way fee. Miles are otherwise charged on top, and the Class B cannot tow. We could not confirm a USD nightly rate on its pages, so get a quote.
