Jeep Grand Wagoneer 2026

Was new to Turo. Pick up was a little different as was drop off but couldn’t beat the price. Wish I got more mileage, but I’ll look for another option next time. Everything else was fantastic. I loved the car and I will continue to rent this type of car. Great experience overall.

Jeep Cherokee 2019

This was my first Turo rental experience, and everything was perfect from beginning to end. The price was very reasonable, and I really appreciated the respect and professionalism shown to customers. I honestly couldn’t believe how well-maintained this 2019 SUV was. Everything ran smoothly, and the gas mileage was around 30 MPG, which was excellent for my trip. It’s a beautiful SUV and definitely added many great memories to my Alaska adventure. Hao was extremely friendly, responsive, and professional, which made my first Turo experience incredibly smooth and enjoyable. So much so that right after this trip, I booked two more Turo rentals in Alaska! Turo has completely changed the way I travel. Next year, I will definitely contact Hao first to check availability. I hope to see Hao again on my next Colorado trip!

Best car ever! 11/10 would rebook! Car has every option available - heated and cooled seats, armrests and cup holders, massaging seats, moonroof, etc etc etc. This 7 seater chariot was so incredibly helpful for our week in Denver. Host was super accommodating and let us extend our reservation to save us a trip to the airport as well!

The Tahoe was perfect! Clean and beautiful. The real bonus from using this company is that the car was literally parked right outside of baggage. No dealing with the annoying shuttles. The pick up and drop off could not have been easier! Ricardo was super responsive during the booking and rental process. Highly highly recommend!

This Jeep absolutely made our Colorado vacation. We took it through Pikes Peak, mountain roads, and everywhere in between, and it handled everything like a champ. It was clean, reliable, and so much fun to drive. The whole rental process was incredibly easy from start to finish. Easy booking, easy pickup, easy return. If you’re planning a Colorado adventure, rent this Jeep. It turned a great trip into an unforgettable one!

Tesla Model Y 2021

Ricardo & Anay Acuña were perfect hosts. They promptly answered every question we had, often within seconds. For a 5-year-old vehicle, this Tesla Model Y was in excellent condition and performed flawlessly. The pick-up was in the airport parking lot just outside the arrivals/baggage claims area, and we were able to drop the vehicle off directly to Ricardo, who was waiting as we drove up to the curb at Departures, which saved us time and money. This seamless process made renting from Acuña much more convenient than renting from a car rental agency. I would 100% do business with them again!

Hyundai Tucson Hybrid 2022

Atilla waa very helpful, instructions were clear and very easy to follow especially given we were new to DEN. Car condition was really good, car was cleaned prior, the small compartments would need some vacuum but the dashboard, the seats, and the mats were cleaned before our trip! Everything was super easy from start to finish. Getting a hybrid is really a plus especially given gas prices now. Go and book!
