I had a great experience renting a Tesla Cybertruck from Mario. From start to finish, he was professional, respectful, and very easy to work with. The Cybertruck was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as advertised. Mario made the entire rental process smooth and stress-free, and his communication was on point throughout. You can tell he takes pride in his business and genuinely cares about making sure his customers have a great experience. I would definitely rent from Mario again and recommend him to anyone looking for a great vehicle and a reliable person to do business with. 10/10 experience!

Great car! If you’ve never experienced FSD on the latest generation of Tesla hardware, you owe it to yourself to try it! Pickup and drop off was the easiest I’ve ever had at the airport, I hope to rent this car every time I’m in town. A

This was our first experience with Turo, and we were impressed. Christian was very professional and accommodating. His Tesla, like our own has FSD, and is in excellent condition. These two factors, host and car, made our trip very pleasurable. We will be back!

For my son high school prom. The host was very accommodating. Car was beautiful. Communication was great. I rented another corvette from someone else and on 1 hour before they canceled car because there was a flat. I was going nuts looking for another car. Found this host and allowed me to rent from him. Everything was great. 2 thumbs up. Highly recommend him

A++ POPS' F-Type is an incredible, well maintained, amazingly smooth to drive, rocketship of a car. The tune they have on it raises the bar for every other sports car on Turo and it, somehow, also manages close to 30 mpg while blitzing down the highways. The hosts themselves are super easy to communicate with, very accommodating, and all around great car guys! Would 1000% rent again from Pops — they really do stand out and take care of their cars and clients.
