Vincent was kind and attentive. Answered every question I had, from arrival at PHX to heading towards the rental. There is a small fee to pay for getting the rental out the lot, just like any other airport parking garages, it’s based off of time. Make sure you plan efficiently from your plane landing to pick up time. We easily found everything and had no issues picking up the vehicle. Only paid $9 to get out the lot and was immediately reimbursed. Vehicle was great and reliable. We did a lot of hiking and off roading which was awesome and handy. I will say towards the end of the trip we did notice the lock on the passenger side was not working which was a safety concern for myself and guests. I immediately messaged Vincent and he apologized for the inconvenience and said he’d get that checked out. The speakers sound a bit muffled and not clear but it wasn’t a big deal for us , we still were vibing and having fun! The CarPlay would choose when to work, but I enjoyed it when it came to maps. Obviously a Jeep is a heavy set vehicle so it takes some effort to make it go over 60mph, and gas was about $60 for a full tank. Nonetheless we enjoyed our rental! Thanks.

Ford Bronco 2023

The Bronco couldn’t have been a more perfect vehicle for my dad and me on our father-daughter trip to Sedona. This was my first experience using Turo, and Randy made the entire process incredibly seamless from pickup to drop-off. The Bronco drove beautifully, handled the scenic roads with ease, and had plenty of room for all of our luggage. It was the perfect vehicle for taking in the stunning red rock scenery during our drives and made every mile that much more enjoyable. We truly loved everything about the experience. In fact, driving the Bronco had me second-guessing my plans to trade in my own car when I got home! Randy was a fantastic host—friendly, helpful, and communicative throughout the rental. Thank you again, Randy, for your hospitality and for sharing such an amazing vehicle. It was the perfect addition to a memorable vacation, and I wouldn’t hesitate to rent from you again.

Fantastic experience. I’ve rented about 100 cars on Turo and never have had such an amazing rental process. This host goes above and beyond. A rock hit the windshield and cracked it while I was driving. I was expecting a lot to pay out of pocket but ended up only having to pay 50$! The host even offered to split the cost with me to bring it down to 25. He also gave me a free ride at the beginning and end of the trip. The car was super nice and fun to drive!
