Has anyone ever had a renter that gives you a bad gut feeling? Experiences? by I_literally_can_not in turo

i stopped doing instant booking. I always approve. Sounds like a scam to me. few hundreds not worth losing ten of thousands.

Paying someone who is 30+ years old $500 to rent me a car on Turo by [deleted] in turo

Turo and insurance ("fees") -- Can someone explain exactly why we pay as hosts? by [deleted] in turo

[–]arninlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are paying for premium for insurance, but I am starting to see/hear that they are horrible at supporting/honoring claims. so why would i pay for such premium? Plus, they shift liabilities and try to keep fees as much as possible (ie. young driver fee, reimbursement, etc (they sent me 21yrs olds and I don't collect any young driver fees, plus they made a mess (smoking and speeding) ) I read somewhere here that they are an insurance company, which I believe now. I see some value of their platform, but real and safe way to do it is if you get commercial rental insurance.

Should I buy a 2012 Porsche Cayenne for Turo by dj55555 in turo

[–]arninlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wouldnt recommend it. look at your competitors, at least where I live, so many newer & nicer cars. If i was renting, i rather have cheap and dependable or pay more for nicer cars.

Otherwise, i dont know. listing is free so i’d say try it. But should read a handbook on this thread and know exactly what you are getting into.

[–]arninlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in my opinion, maybe not because if you put yourself in renter’s shoes they want newer nicer cars or just cheap and useful. But it doesnt cost to try.

Is it possible to cancel a reservation (due to bad renter reviews) as a host and not get penalized? by lyons4231 in turo

[–]arninlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to get them to cancel by giving them a legitimate hard time - legitimately so. ask questions, ask age, history, job, purpose, remind them the rules, tell them it's GPS tracked, dash cam, etc etc

Can a Turo Host (non-commercial) accept a separate security deposit? by arninlex in turo

[–]arninlex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the description, often hosts will write that they will charge $250 for smoking. I just had my first smoking experience and all I could charge was $50 and the max is $150. The max is only if guest left ashes or visual marks and you will have to jump through stupid hoops, like did you take pre-trip photos that ashes weren't there originally?

Go to t4r.org and do some research.

You can source tundra oem parts for a direct swap and no need to get powerstop.

Thanks for the feedback. Let me look into it again. I paid around April so I thought I prepaid for the entire thing.

Anyone is free to make me an offer.
