I’m very honored to have been Kashyap’s first renter. He deep cleaned his car which was the very first time I’ve gotten this type of service on a Turo rental, after various prior experiences. Provided bottled water and various chargers which were useful during my trip. Don’t hesitate to rent with Kashyap!! Would definitely rent again.

Erlis (and his wife) was a great host. Communication and timeliness was consistent and reasonable. Erlis helped tremendously with an issue I was having and went above and beyond as a host to assure the issue was resolved. The Audi A3 was at a great price and drove very smoothly and the maitenance was up to date. Although I had just a one day reservation, I enjoyed the vehicle and the hosts. I would recommend to others to get the experience of a nice vehicle and great hosts. Hopefully, I will be a repeat customer.

I’ve rented almost all of Alex’s cars, and every experience has been top-notch! Alex is truly the best of the best—always providing excellent service, fast responses, and a smooth rental process. This time, I had the pleasure of driving the 2021 Hyundai Sonata, and it was an absolute dream! I also used the pickup service, which was super convenient and made my trip even better. If you’re looking for a reliable, professional, and friendly host, Alex is the one. Thank you again, Alex! Looking forward to my next rental. Sincerely TDD

Absolutely amazing experience renting from Adeyemi! I rented this Hyundai for over a month and the entire trip went incredibly smooth from start to finish. The car was very safe, reliable, clean, fuel efficient, and had absolutely no mechanical or internal issues during my entire rental period. Communication was excellent, the host was professional, respectful, responsive, and made the whole process stress-free. The vehicle drove perfectly daily with no problems at all, which made long-term renting extremely comfortable and dependable. I highly recommend booking with Adeyemi if you’re looking for a reliable Turo host and a well-maintained vehicle. Definitely a 5-star experience and I would absolutely rent again in the future!

Tesla Model 3 2023

5-Star Experience with David’s Tesla 3 – Newark’s Hidden Gem! If you're in the Newark area and looking for a ride that’s more than just transportation—David is your guy, and his Tesla 3 is the move. First off, David’s service? Impeccable. Professional, responsive, and chill. He made the entire rental process smooth and stress-free. You can tell he genuinely wants you to enjoy the experience—not just rent a car. He walked me through everything, answered questions, and even gave me some quick tips to make the most of the Tesla tech. Now let’s talk about the Tesla 3 itself—this thing is a spaceship on wheels. Instant torque and smooth acceleration? Check. Autopilot that makes the highway feel like a VIP lounge? Yep. Premium sound system that had my playlist sounding like a live concert? Absolutely. Massive touchscreen display, voice controls, energy monitoring, charging info, Netflix while parked—it's all there. The clean, minimalist design inside feels like the future. And don’t sleep on Romance Mode or Caraoke—those features alone are worth it. David keeps the car spotless and fully charged, ready to roll. Whether you're in town for business, leisure, or just want to flex in a Tesla for the day, you can’t go wrong. Highly recommend renting from David—he’s top-tier, and his Tesla 3 is a vibe.

FIAT 500 2016

Excellent experience in every way and so satisfied renting from Andrea who provided me with a wonderful vehicle to drive for 12 days! Andrea was a most gracious host! I could not be more pleased with my choice and am sad to return this wonderful car! The Fiat is a small but very fun car to drive!!! You will not be disappointed - the car definitely gets fantastic mileage on gas which was a big plus and fits in basically any parking spot at all. Andrea was very communicative too, responding quickly after booking and during the rental. Also the car was in beautiful shape! It was extremely clean, well maintained and has cleaning supplies in the trunk! All around perfect experience in every way and I could not more highly recommend a host or vehicle for a terrific rental! I will surely reach out again in the future and hope to rent this awesome car again very soon! :)

Driving in a new city or state can be a daunting experience. But with these top driving tips, you can navigate the streets of New Jersey with confidence.

The roads of New Jersey span everything from suburban streets to major highways and rolling farmland roads. Speed limits in the state range from 25 mph to 65 mph, and drivers must stop at least 25 feet back from a school bus when its red lights are flashing.
