I am trying Turo. I have doubts. The reason for trying it is costs. The cheapest rental I can find is a Hertz Manager's Special for $378 for a few days I need the car. Autoslash is slightly more with Fox Rent a Car, which has complaints. Other companies, such as Hertz (not a Manager's Special), Avis, Thrifty, National are all around $400 or higher.

In contrast, Turo has a $205 rate for a 2012 car. They also have quite a few mid-$200's. A 2018 BMW X1 goes for $400.

My doubts are the car will be in poor condition, that there may be surprise charges, or the owner will not meet me or have a lockbox. The owner has about 15 reviews and two cars for rent.
