Best campervan/sleeper station wagon company to rent from east coast of Oz?

Country forums / Australia, New Zealand & Antarctica

Boyfriend and I are planning a road trip from Brisbane -> Sydney and then Sydney -> Melbourne. We're thinking it's probably cheaper to dump the vehicle in Sydney and then rent a new one 5 days later that way we: a) aren't paying for the 4-5 days we'll stay in Sydney and not use the vehicle; and b) don't have to pay for parking in Sydney. We're then thinking of doing transfercar.com.au from Sydney -> Melbourne as we'll only take 3 days to do the trip and it looks like we may be able to find one super cheap for just a 3 day journey.

That said: what's the best place to rent a stationwagon/campervan for 2 people from Brisbane to Sydney? Wicked is likely the cheapest, but from what I've read, I think it may be best to steer clear of them. However, I did like the look of this size car . I'd also prefer not to drive around in a car that says "drop acid, not bombs."

Any recommendations? Thanks so much for all of your help!!
