Those might be hard to get. Only advice is to plan early since they are a "specialty" rental and no every place will have them. You might want to consider just renting 2 seven passenger minivans.

Most places that rent vans rent CARGO vans, not for passengers. Be sure the rental company knows what you want and that you will be leaving California with them, even for only three days.

Good point on crossong state lines. I rented from someone in Rochester and they said their vehicles "called in" if you did so, a problem up there as many people wanted to take them to Canada or PA.
