We've been renting from Turo for years. By far, this has been the best experience. Pickup and drop off were easy and seamless. Better than any rental car companies could provide! The car had great mileage, performed well with excellent pickup. Air conditioner was cold as we had to turn the fan down before driving a block would definitely rent again. Thank you for the excellent service!

This car was wonderful! In excellent condition, would absolutely rent from Rodney again!

The car was ready to go on time, super clean and I loved the little hand sanitizer available for us. The host was super communicative and accommodating when my trip was adjusted. Highly recommend booking!

Car was perfect for our 6 days trip. Very friendly host, good contact. I honestly recommend it.
Amazing experience with this Turo rental! The host was super helpful, giving quick and clear communication throughout the whole process. I highly recommend them!
Everything was great! The car ran smoothly, it was perfectly clean, and had no problems. I'll always go through Turo now instead of a rental car company. Corey made the process seamless.

The vehicle was perfect for our travels and was very comfortable and reliable. The host was extremely timely on responding to our questions. We would definitely rent from him again.



Excellent experience from start to finish! The car was clean, comfortable, reliable, and exactly as described. The host was wonderful—friendly, responsive, and made the entire process easy and seamless. Pickup and drop-off were effortless. I would definitely rent from this host again and highly recommend them!

Perfect trip. Easy pickup location at Buff-Niagara Airport. Host was easy to communicate with and the car has zero issues. Nothing broken, great transmission, acceleration, brakes, air conditioning, etc. Thanks for a great road trip to Niagara Falls!

Wanted to get an affordable EV for my 4 day trip to Buffalo for a family event and of course for visiting Niagara Falls. Rodney's Hyundai Kona fit this perfectly. Rodney helped accommodate airport pickup and made the check in and check out process easy. The vehicle was in a parking lot just a free shuttle ride from the airport. The vehicle itself was great. Gave around 230 miles and there are plenty of EV chargers in the area including Tesla's super charger for non teslas. It has the useful features like heated seats for cold buffalo weather, android auto, apple car play, adaptive cruise, and zig zag type lane keep assist. If in a rush I would recommend charging up to 80% in DC fast charger and rest in 19kW AC level 2 chargers. It should take around an hour or hour and 20 minutes total. I would definitely recommend Rodney for Buffalo EV rental needs.

Great communication even with a flight delay. Very convenient pick up and drop off. Thank you!

Great service, pickup and parking was easy, and the car was excellent. Great host! A++

Car drove very well, excellent condition, good host with no issues communicating, easy pickup at the airport. Recommended.

Book your vehicle early on Turo to secure the best SUV options for your Western New York adventure, especially during peak travel seasons when demand increases. Look for rental SUVs with features like all-wheel drive for confident handling in various weather conditions, and consider vehicles equipped with backup cameras for easier parking in busy areas. Choose SUV rentals that offer family-friendly amenities such as child seats if traveling with children, or pet-friendly options if bringing your furry companions along for the journey.
Rental SUVs provide excellent visibility for navigating East Amherst's suburban neighborhoods and accessing nearby Buffalo attractions with confidence.

These vehicles offer ample cargo space for carrying winter gear, sports equipment, or shopping purchases during your New York adventure.
Rental SUVs require gentle steering inputs on curved roads around the Amherst area to maintain stability and passenger comfort. Reduce speed before entering turns rather than braking mid-corner, especially when exploring scenic routes near Tonawanda or heading toward Massachusetts. Modern SUV safety features like electronic stability control help maintain traction during cornering maneuvers.
Rental SUVs typically feature all-wheel drive systems that provide superior traction on snowy Buffalo-area roads and icy parking lots.

Backup cameras prove essential for new drivers navigating tight parking spaces around Amherst shopping centers and airport vehicle return areas.
