If the forecast shows a hard freeze (around\/below 32°F) at your elevation, we’ll need to winterize the van before pickup to protect the plumbing. When winterized, the onboard water system (sink\/shower\/hot water) isn’t operable—we’ll provide water jugs and simple workarounds.\u003cbr\u003eImportant: if the van is taken into freezing temps with the water system active and any part freezes\/damages, repairs are the renter’s responsibility under our agreement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2) Mountain passes, traction\/chain rules \u0026amp; FWD\u003cbr\u003eThe van is front-wheel drive. From Sept 1–May 31, I-70 over the high passes (Eisenhower\/Johnson Tunnel \u0026amp; Vail Pass) runs under Colorado’s traction rules. That means you must have M+S\/All-Weather or Winter tires with at least 3\/16\" tread (The van currently has new all weather tires this season), or carry\/use chains or an approved traction device when required. During storms, the state can escalate to the Passenger Vehicle Chain Law, which requires chains\/approved devices on all passenger vehicles—on a FWD van, that means the front tires. Roadside signs and COtrip org will show when these are active.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- No Smoking or vaping\u003cbr\u003e- No Pets\u003cbr\u003e- No Off Roading.
