Since we’re from Montana my girlfriend insisted we get a truck for our roadtrip. The truck was awesome and Eric was very helpful fulfilling a last minute request I had before we took off. Probably the best Turo rental I have encountered.

This trip was incredible! The truck was amazing, the host was super helpful and made this the easiest rental I’ve ever had. The f250 was hands down the nicest rental we could have asked for, everything worked perfectly and it got great mileage for the trips we took. Along with having great tires and 4x4 in case we needed it.
