The 2017 Ford Transit that we rented was nice, clean, and in very good condition. This vehicle is excellent on gas. Even with the high gas prices now, the Ford Transit ran a long ways before we had to refill on fuel. Mr. Isaiah is a very nice person with great customer service. The previous person I was renting from, vehicle was not ready at rental time. Mr Isaiah was there to save our trip!. Anyone needing a Transit vehicle, I highly recommend renting from Mr. Isaiah. I most definitely will rent from him again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Turo Experience Yet! I can’t say enough great things about this rental! The vehicle was absolutely immaculate—clean, spacious, and perfect for our group trip. It had everything we needed and more. Isiah was an outstanding host—friendly, professional, and incredibly accommodating. Despite our flight delays, he went above and beyond to make sure the vehicle was ready for us, even at a very late hour. The price was extremely reasonable given the high quality of the vehicle and the amenities included. This has truly been my best Turo experience to date, and I’m already looking forward to booking with Isiah again. If you’re considering this vehicle, don’t hesitate—it’s 100% worth it. Highly recommend!

This was my first time renting from Isiah and customer service was phenomenal! He provided great knowledge of the vehicle and ensured I would have no issues. The vehicle was very clean and still had the new car scent! The process for reservation was quick and easy. I let him know I was running 30 minutes behind my scheduled return time and he stated, “No problem, take your time.” If anyone is looking for a van to travel with a big family, Isiah is the person to rent from. Wonderful experience! He has gained a lifelong customer!

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Isiah - the owner of a 2016 Ford Transit! The van is in excellent condition, very well maintained inside and out! Not only is the van 7 minutes from the airport, if you decide to pick it up from the parking lot, but the owner Isiah will provide you with excellent service - he can meet you with the van at the airport or deliver you to the address you specify! I really enjoyed this service, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to use Isiah - you will be very satisfied!
