Andrey was amazing! I had to keep changing my trip as things were changing spontaneously and they were so accommodating. Car was clean, smelled nice, and drove very well. Will definitely rent again in the future.
Amazing experience from the car to the service ! would definitely rent again Michael made the trip effortless and smooth and the car was in great shape
The car was clean super clean Mike was a good business person made my trip smoother I would rent again in December
My new host was great- this car was a replacement for a rental that broke down. The Fusion had great economy and plenty of power on the highway. My 1200 mile round trip was comfortable. I even had to sleep in the car on the road and with the way the engine economy works I was able to sleep with the heat or air on all night and burned little gas- it turns on the engine to keep the batteries charged! My host knew I had a difficult situation and was professional and courteous the entire time. Thank you Michael!
Michael was awesome. Never thought I would choose to drive a Prius, but would totally go back. The car was great, the service was fabulous, and the whole team was so communicative. If I ever need to rent a car again, im immediately hitting Michael up.

First time in a hybrid of this model, and this thing can move. Great on gas, and very spacious. The car does have a speed limiter (82mph) but I’m actually thankfully for it: main reason is I can never actually get a speeding ticket but if this car didn’t have a limiter it is very easy to not notice your speed due to how fast it picks up. It also has a restriction on the radio that you can’t listen to media until your seat beat is buckled. Not sure why you would complain there since you have to wear it by law regardless. All in all, Michael was amazing and car was awesome. Will rent again, thanks Mike!
Host was very helpful which made the pick up and drop off easy. The car was reliable. Overall great trip!

Car was great! Clean and had a full tank when I picked up. It was easy to drive and controls were relatively straightforward. Return was easy, as well. Always a great experience with this provider/owner. Will definitely rent from again on the future. Thanks Vlad!

Car was wonderful. Host was great and communicated fast and effective. Would rent again!

Love how the car drove! Vlad was a great host and made sure the process was easy! Will definitely rent again
The car was exactly what I was expecting. When a maintenance light came up, they were responsive and willing to take care of it right away. I didnt have any issues with the car and I was just glad I was able to rent the car last minute on a holiday.

We had a great experience with this Tesla rental. After our original reservation was canceled just 24 hours before pickup, we really needed something reliable—and this car delivered. It was clean, well-maintained, and drove beautifully. Everything worked as expected, and it made the rest of our trip so much smoother. Definitely a great rental and exactly what we needed!

J&D were amazing. They were a joy to communicate with and showed genuine care in ensuring my trip was a success! Vehicle was super clean and in great condition. Nothing but good things to say! I'd like to use their vehicles and service again - I'll be adding them to my favorites!

It was an easy transaction. Host responded on a timely manner. The car drove smoothly. After I paid the amount and was taken out from my bank account it wouldn't let me finish the whole transaction until I bought an insurance from their app for an additional $9 per day which wasn't that bad. Easy instructions from getting the car to returning the car. However, my first time returning so even I returned it an hour earlier I didn't realized I had to checkout on the app to finish the return transaction. Hopefully they will be forgiving about it.

Always a pleasure working with Vlad, thanks so much for the professionalism and quick responses. Car was clean and reliable as always.
Excellent seamless experience would definitely recommend this car and Turo host
A little planning makes local driving easy. Here's what to know before you set out in San Marcos.
Stick to posted limits, watch for cyclists and pedestrians near downtown and the university, and keep a safe following distance on winding roads like the climb up to Double Peak Park. Interstate 15 and Highway 78 are the main routes in and out of the city.
You'll find public lots and street parking around the city center, plus ample free parking at shopping centers such as Grand Plaza and North City. Cal State San Marcos offers daily and weekly permits if you're spending time on campus.
San Marcos streets and the main freeways here are toll-free, so most local trips cost you nothing extra. A few optional toll roads exist elsewhere in the region if you drive farther north — you can always take the free route instead.
Fuel stations line San Marcos Boulevard and the Highway 78 corridor for easy refueling before you return your car. Driving electric? Public charging is available around the city and nearby centers — an electric vehicle rental pairs well with San Marcos's short hops between stops.
Yes — North County is spread out and transit is limited, so a car is the most practical way to reach the beaches, the parks, and the restaurants on your list. Having your own set of wheels turns a full itinerary into an easy day.
To book a car in San Marcos on Turo, you'll need a valid driver's license, a Turo account in good standing, and a payment method. Add your license details to your account before your trip so you're ready to go at pickup.
Yes. Guests with a valid out-of-state or foreign driver's license can book cars in San Marcos. If your license isn't in English, bring an international driving permit alongside your original license.
You must be at least 18 to book a car in San Marcos on Turo, though some vehicles and hosts set higher age requirements. Younger drivers may see a young driver fee at checkout.
When you book in San Marcos, you'll choose from a range of protection plans at checkout. Compare the options and pick the one that fits your trip before you confirm.
Many hosts in San Marcos offer lower daily rates for weekly and monthly bookings, and prices vary by vehicle and dates. Compare listings to find the best value for your trip.
Yes. Plenty of hosts in San Marcos welcome longer trips, whether you need a car for a couple of weeks or a full season. Look for listings that offer weekly and monthly rates.
Mileage allowances are set by each host and shown on the listing in San Marcos. Some include generous or unlimited miles, so check the details if you're planning longer drives around North County.
Yes. You can add an additional driver to your trip in the Turo app at no extra cost. Make these changes yourself in the app rather than asking the host to update the booking.
Most bookings in San Marcos come with free cancellation within a set window after you book. Check the cancellation policy on your reservation for the exact details.
Yes. If you need a car for a month or longer in San Marcos, look for hosts offering monthly rates for the best long-term value on an extended booking.
