Great car, clean and great on gas. Only cost $34 to fill the tank. Host was awesome as well. I chose to have the vehicle delivered to my home. Luis communicated when he was on his way and brought the vehicle to me on time. The rental process was seamless, easy, and overall a great experience.

What an amazing experience! The host was incredibly helpful since I was new to Turo, the pick up was easy, I had to adjust my drop off date and time many times due to the Blizzard, the host caused no unnecessary stress. The car was in pristine condition when I picked it up. I will never use a rental car company like Enterprise or Hertz again, Turo is the way to go!
