The car has little cosmetic defects but everything works perfectly and you get the Mustang for basically the rent price of Corolla! Smooth communication and very good experience! Thank you!

Turo saved our trip! Let's start there. We flew in from San Antonio,TX to San Diego Ca and our car reservation was canceled last minute. Leaving us stranded with no car to transport my family including our baby so you can only imagine our stress and anxiety levels. Turo was an easy process and had us in a vehicle in less than an hour and truly turned our nightmare into a joyful trip. We will definitely be renting from them again.

Ford Fiesta 2016

The car was a 2016 Ford Fiesta with 104K miles. We only needed a vehicle for a few days and for local day trips only. Leni's price was the lowest so we gave Leni our business. After the initial contract terms were set, we decided to extend a day and also asked if we could bring our two small dogs in the car with us. Although she was somewhat caught off guard by our dog request, she quickly pivoted and said if we paid the Turo pet fee, she would be fine with it. On delivery day, she was on time. The car was thoroughly clean and for a 10 year old car, it had only a few cosmetic defects, none of which affected the drivability of the car. During the rental, the car ran well without any issues! And on return day, Leni was prompt in meeting us for the transfer. One final note - Leni is a vibrant, cheerful person and was so positive throughout the entire transaction. I heartily recommended Leni and will look to use her again if her car matches our future transportation needs in the San Diego area! - CWO4 M. Brown USN Ret

We had a great experience with the Ford Bronco. It was a beautiful, spacious car with a smooth ride and a luxurious feel. Loved the color!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It was comfortable, drove wonderfully, and made the trip even more enjoyable. The host was also amazing—responsive, trustworthy, and genuinely kind. We had a small issue after the rental, and he was incredibly helpful and accommodating, going above and beyond for us. Great car, great experience, and most importantly, a great person to rent from. We would absolutely recommend him!

He was truly a great host. I would definitely rent another car from him if I needed one again. The instructions for picking up and dropping off the vehicle were excellent. We had an issue with the first car, but he immediately swapped it for another one at the same price. I would certainly recommend him.
