I usually rent from rental companies, completely forgetting about how easy and quick it is to use Turo and have so many options for a reasonable price! Me and my brother new instantly we wanted this Jeep Cherokee even though it was just the 2 of us, lol. I've driven a couple before and this was just as good as the rest. It drove so smoothly, and it was very clean, gas mileage was great as well for what little we had planned over the weekend. I only had to fill it up once the whole time. The host were very friendly and quickly at responding! I have never problem booking again. Thank you so much for giving us access to this beauty!

My experience during the rental process was GREAT!! The owner (Ryan) reached out to inform me of a time delay related with the vehicle I initially reserved. Ryan knew the vehicle wouldn’t be returned in time for him to prepare for my reservation. Ryan quickly accommodated me with another SUV that was even BETTER. Communication goes along way and Ryan completed the assignment. The vehicle was clean, there was enough space for my family, you could tell that maintenance is a priority, and the drive was smooth. I would definitely rent from this owner again.

Great experience overall! The car is a 2018, so it has some normal wear, but it got me safely from Point A to Point B without any problems. The brakes could use a check, and the key fob battery may need replacing, but nothing kept me from completing my trip. It’s best for shorter drives rather than long-distance travel. The host was friendly, accommodating, and easy to communicate with. I would definitely rent from them again because the car did exactly what I needed it to do. Thank you!

The jeep was a perfect vehicle for our family trip to Nashville! It got us to where we needed to go and it was a very smooth ride. The hosts were great and responded very quickly, even at 4 AM when our flight got in. I definitely wouldn’t rent from them again.

Host went above and beyond by offering to meet us after our trip was over due to us leaving a brand new box of diapers in the trunk. He also accommodated us after needing the SUV longer than expected for our daughter’s birthday trip. Truly appreciate the customer service!
