We had an excellent experience renting this truck for our vacation. The vehicle was clean, reliable, and exactly as described. It drove great the entire trip and made traveling much more comfortable. The owner was responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the rental process. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and convenient. We would definitely rent this truck again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable vehicle for a trip.
Clint was an outstanding host from start to finish! The entire rental process was incredibly easy, smooth, and stress-free. He was friendly, responsive, and very accommodating, making sure everything was clear and convenient throughout the trip. The truck itself was excellent—clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. It was spotless when I picked it up and performed flawlessly the entire time. I took it on a longer trip and had absolutely zero issues. The ride was comfortable, reliable, and handled everything I needed with ease. If you’re looking for a five-star experience all around, book with this host!!! I will absolutely rent from him again in the future! Thank you!!
This truck was an absolute blast to drive! We had an awesome time and really enjoyed the experience. The customer service was outstanding very friendly, responsive, and helpful throughout the entire rental process. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great rental experience.
The option of Renting this Nissan Frontier pick up truck appeared at first glance like an “anxiety-reducing opportunity”, and here’s the reason why: -Pretty much all of the other trucks of the same type (with the oversized compartment in the back) are advertising for over $200 at the minimum, and quite often for just 24 hours. -In addition to the relief I felt as I noticed that this one was reasonably priced, the pick up location came as an unexpected bonus. Basically, there are a great number of car dealerships, most if not all, located one next to the other, occupying about a mile-long segment of the main road connecting Colma and Daly City called Serramonte Blvd. Thus, after dropping my car at the Volkswagen dealership on Serramonte blvd, being able to access this rental, located only about a mile away was a pleasant surprise. Especially when you combine that with the affordable price. - Lastly, the communication with the truck owner was easy and the details provided were quite thorough; which altogether made for an “anxiety-reducing” experience overall😀👍🙏. Thank you again for making the rental process of your Frontier, as simple and stress-free as it can be. Kel F, PharmD
Truck was a pleasure to drive. We had to rent while our truck was in shop. Wanted to use a local rather than car rental companies. The truck was super Clean and comfortable. Great communication with host. Would definitely rent again.
Truck rental again was great, very clean and comfortable, will do business again in future, thank you.
Tian was great. He helped guide us throughout the whole rental process. The car has amazing FSD. I would highly recommend for roadtrips. Would rent again from him
This host and truck were amazing! The room in the back seat was spacious and comfortable. Also, all 10 large luggage b pieces fit perfectly on the bed of the truck. Recommend this truck rental over a rental company SUV.
We had an excellent experience renting this Dodge Ram. The host was fantastic ... very responsive, easy to communicate with, and always available if we needed anything. The truck itself exceeded our expectations. It was exceptionally clean inside and out when we picked it up, drove beautifully, and was completely trouble-free throughout our trip. What impressed us most was the fuel economy. We were honestly expecting the 5.7L HEMI V8 to be hard on fuel, but it was surprisingly efficient on the highway. At one point we averaged just 10.8 L/100 km, which is better than some other trucks we've rented. The stereo system was also excellent and made the long drives much more enjoyable. Overall, this was one of the best vehicle rental experiences we've had. Great host, great truck, and great value. We would not hesitate to rent from them again and highly recommend both the vehicle and the owner to anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable truck.
Carlos was super accommodating for me. I really appreciated how he treated me and helped me through the rental process. Truck was great as well!
We’ve now rented for three straight months from Broden, choosing multiple vehicles. He has always been extremely responsive and made our experience smooth. He has some of the best vehicles available and at a very reasonable price. We tried to rent from another listing this past week after returning our last vehicle to Broden, and immediately had to contact Turo to have them cancel the reservation due to major mechanical issues. Broden keeps up on his mechanical services, that added Rocket Car Wash unlimited pass is a really nice bonus, and pickup and drop off are so convenient. We just booked our 4th month and 3rd vehicle today with Broden.
This truck is awesome. It has a super strong and smooth running engine. All the working areas of the truck such as the tie downs in the bed are in great condition, which was super important for me. 👍👍 used for hauling machinery. The bed is in good shape not torn up like most rental trucks. Made it easy to sweep out. You will love driving this truck if visibility is important to you, it’s a lot better than a comparable sized van lol. While trucking around 😎 I loved the sound system, worked great with charging my phone and playing music. The check in and experience with Nesha was excellent. The price was significantly better and I enjoyed this truck much more than any truck I’ve gotten from THD, Lowes or Enterprise and this year was a BIG YEAR for trucks and vans ✌️
Amazing truck, flawless and very reasonable price. Just keep in mind it's rear wheel drive so not best for snowy conditions! But otherwise awesome car!
Amazing experience from start to finish! The truck was clean, well-maintained, and ready right on time. The staff was professional, friendly, and made the rental process quick and stress-free. the truck drove perfectly the entire trip. I would definitely recommend this truck rental company to anyone needing reliable service and equipment. Will absolutely be using them again in the future!
Great truck rental experience! The vehicle was clean, reliable, and easy to drive. The host is easy to talk to and made pickup/drop-off smooth and hassle-free. Highly recommend!
The rental was affordable and truck was great like the host Janine who was very friendly and very professional. The truck was delivered to my address which was very convenient for me and the situation of getting a ride to pickup ride to have a ride. Geeeesh
Elio’s truck was perfect and he was responsive throughout the rental process. He helped provide accurate pick up and drop off directions and the process was smooth throughout. Thank you!
Loved this freaking truck, great guys managing great price. Got lots of attention, definitely will rent again.
This was so easy very fast and definitely coming back when I need to rent a truck.
Thank you so much! Beautiful truck, and such a smooth ride and rental process!

Frequently asked questions in San Lorenzo
Why rent a car in San Lorenzo?
San Lorenzo's location in the San Francisco Bay Area makes car rental essential for moving furniture, hauling construction materials, or transporting large items between cities like San Jose and Oakland. The spacious car beds accommodate everything from appliances to landscaping supplies that won't fit in standard vehicles. California's diverse terrain and San Lorenzo's proximity to both urban centers and rural areas means having a rental car provides the versatility needed for various projects and adventures.
What driving differences should I expect with a car?
Cars sit higher than regular cars, giving you better visibility of traffic conditions around San Francisco Bay Area but requiring more attention when changing lanes due to larger blind spots. The increased weight means longer stopping distances, especially when loaded, so maintain greater following distances on busy California highways. Acceleration feels different compared to smaller vehicles, and you'll need to account for the car's length when navigating tight spaces in San Lorenzo or nearby Hayward.
How do I park a large car safely?
Choose parking spots with ample space on both sides, avoiding compact spaces common in busy areas like San Jose or San Francisco. Use your mirrors extensively and take your time backing up, as cars have significant blind spots behind the tailgate. When parking in San Lorenzo neighborhoods, be mindful of overhanging tree branches and ensure the car bed doesn't extend into traffic lanes or block sidewalks.
How should I distribute weight in my car?
Place heavier items directly over the rear axle and against the front of the car bed to maintain proper balance while driving through California's varied terrain. Distribute weight evenly from side to side to prevent the rental car from pulling to one direction, especially important when traveling between San Lorenzo and destinations like Pleasanton or Fresno. Secure all cargo with tie-downs or straps to prevent shifting during transport, particularly on winding Bay Area roads.
What safety features do modern cars offer?
Contemporary cars include backup cameras that provide clear views of what's behind you, essential for navigating crowded areas around San Francisco or Sacramento. Electronic stability control helps maintain traction on California's diverse road surfaces, from coastal highways to mountain passes. Many cars feature trailer sway control and integrated brake controllers, plus advanced airbag systems designed specifically for the higher seating position cars provide.
Where are the best car road trip destinations from San Lorenzo?
The scenic route to Roseville offers beautiful California countryside views while providing plenty of space for car travel and camping gear transport. Pittsburg's waterfront areas and nearby recreational spots become easily accessible with a rental car's cargo capacity for outdoor equipment and supplies. The diverse landscapes between San Lorenzo and these destinations showcase why having a car rental opens up adventure possibilities throughout the Bay Area and beyond into California's stunning natural areas.
What kind of license do I need to rent a car on Turo?
Turo accepts valid licenses (not expired, suspended, or revoked) that allow for full driving privileges; this includes driver's licenses issued outside of the US. Licenses that Turo doesn't accept in the US include any that have expired, have been altered, are conditional, probational, provisional, or restricted. Learner's permit/instruction permits are not accepted.
Is there unlimited mileage car rental on Turo?
Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit — you'll need to check on each rental car individually to see if this service is provided. On the vehicle pages, you'll see the total miles or kilometers you're allowed to drive under the heading "Distance included." You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the "Unlimited distance" filter.
What documents and paperwork do I need to rent a car on Turo?
To rent a car on Turo, you must create a Turo account, have a valid driver's license, get approved to drive on Turo, and be 18 years old or older in the US, 21 years old or older in Australia, or 23 years old or older in Canada.

In France you must be 18 years old or older and have held a driver's license for at least 2 years, longer for certain makes and models of vehicles. When you're booking your first trip, you'll go through a quick approval process by entering your driver's license and some other information. In most cases, you'll get approved immediately, and you'll be set for all future road trips, day trips, and business trips!
