As always, Steve was a pleasure to rent from. Let’s put it this way, I ALWAYS check Steve’s inventory for any Turo rentals before searching for other cars for any trips that require a rental car. He is the most organized, thorough, and takes the best care of all of his vehicles. Not only that, but he is always the kindest!

We had such a great experience with this rental! The car was clean, comfortable, spacious, and perfect for our family of four. It made our family trip so much easier and more enjoyable, especially with all the driving we did. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and we were very happy with the vehicle. We would definitely recommend this rental to other families and would absolutely rent from them again on our next trip! Thank you for helping make our family trip such a great experience! ❤️

Molly is a fantastic host and provided us with a very clean and safe vehicle for our trip to Yosemite! The Chrysler Pacifica had more than enough room for my family and all their bags. It is far easier to maneuver through the winding roads of Yosemite than an SUV or truck while having the same or more interior space. The sunroof was particularly nice for taking in the grandeur of Yosemite valley!

Car was smooth and ran nicely! The gas tank lasted the entire trip to Monterey and back. Breaks seemed a little squeaky but otherwise the car was excellent. The owner is very responsive.
