thanks for sharing your experience

[@KomfyOwlStudios]

This was exactly what I needed. Thank you. I accidentally landed on your video but was perfect. Right timing for me. Hey Tell your husband he is blessed. Not only are you intelligent with business experience but you are stunning. I couldn't just listen to you which I usually do with videos or any audio education but my eyes was stuck on you hypnotized lol 🤣. Thank you. You've given me the right information I needed to start my Toro business at an older age.

[@EngineerUrLife]

Thanks so much! So glad it was valuable!

[@marca1976]

This is probably the most informative video I've seen on Turo and getting started. Love this and the channel. The insurance video is a Must-Watch.. Keep up the great work!

[@parvinkukar1259]

Great vid, especially as I am about to buy a car and go onto turo. I guess my strategy is to have the lowest price and greatest flexibility to start off with to get at least some positive reviews then push it back to want I’m comfortable with.

[@EngineerUrLife]

Thanks so much! I think that's a great strategy until you have a few reviews to let people feel comfortable with renting from you. Good luck! If you have any other questions, you may want to check out my livestream later today where you can ask questions in the chat: kzbin.infosV9xQoax4_o

Hi were you at the powerhost event in Orlando yesterday

[@Skinnymoss81]

I want to create an llc, so that I can write off expenses. How does this work? Did you do this on your personal? Or you created a business?

[@reyesben]

Thank you for the very comprehensive video. In the state of Massachusetts you cannot register a vehicle without insurance so, do you need to have additional insurance in Turo for your vehicle or would my existing insurance cover this rental?

[@EngineerUrLife]

You're very welcome! Yes, to rent out your car in the U.S., you will need to choose a Turo plan, which will cover the car while it's on a trip. You will still need to keep your personal insurance though, but please make sure to know the risks concerning your personal insurance. I created a video on it recently, you can check it out kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4eXpGmZfquqfZYsi=O1VCxQwWVhzvXna8 or just read on it on Turo's site: help.turo.com/detailed-explanation-of-protection-plans-or-us-hosts-ByMOIVxEc Good luck!

Very Informative. Thanks a lot. Am I obligated to use Stripe as a payment gateway or can I use any other online banks like wise or revolute? And how do I have the TuroGo remote unlock feature in my car?? Thanks again 🙏

[@EngineerUrLife]

Thanks! So glad! Currently, they only work with Stripe. As for Turo Go, your car needs to be a compatible car. They have a list, (see link below) I'm not sure how updated it is, but if it's on there (in green,) then you're most likely good. It uses SmartCar's API, however, there are some cars that SmartCar is compatible with, yet they won't work for Turo Go, such as most Hyundai's. Once you've had 3 trips on your account, if your car is compatible, it will show up in the Turo Go section so that you can set it up. If you think it is compatible, but it doesn't show up, then reach out to Turo support. FYI - If you have any other questions, you may want to check out the livestream later today! kzbin.infosV9xQoax4_o support-resources.turo.com/turo-go/Turo_Go_Smartcar_Compatibility_US.pdf

Sure thing!

[@carsonmarylee]

Great videos do you operate under an LLC for your Turo account?

[@EngineerUrLife]

Thanks so much! Not currently. I do have a business, but currently the cars are not owned by it, and thus, just listed under me personally in Turo. If you have any other questions, you may want to check out my livestream later today: kzbin.infosV9xQoax4_o

[@Manpreetsiddhu]

Whats the difference bw individual and company or non profit

[@EngineerUrLife]

Do you mean, what do they mean, or what would be the reason for each? If you have a company or non-profit organization, and you'd like to use that, you can, instead of doing it under your personal name.

[@destinybrousard6046]

What if you want to do it under LLC not personally?

[@EngineerUrLife]

You can create your account under a company name instead of personally.

[@ericcuerdeandrade8377]

My 2018 Jeep Wrangler ($34,000) was stolen right after the guest returned it at the airport parking lot at DEN. Turo does not want to cover my loss. I had 9 cars on Turo for the last 1 year and a half. TURO NEVER AGAIN. Please, anyone out there who could help me 😢

[@EngineerUrLife]

So sorry to hear that. I hope you can get something resolved. So you didn't have separate insurance? Last I checked, Turo covers you while driving to deliver the car, and then during trip, but coverage ends as soon as they return it. Like I said, I hope you're able to get something worked out. Gl!

[@XxBringBackThePastxX]

I have two financed cars, a 2018 Cadillac Escalade and a 2022 Tesla model s plaid, both cars as I've stated are financed. Can I put the escalade on Turo? Been reading around and am getting mixed responses. Please advice.

[@EngineerUrLife]

You're definitely not alone in wondering about this-there’s a lot of mixed info out there. While I don’t know the exact numbers, it’s safe to assume that a significant number of cars on Turo are financed. Personally, I’ve had financed cars on the platform for years without any problems. It’s always a good idea to check your financing agreement, just in case it has any restrictions around commercial use. The key thing is to make sure you’re always on time with your payments and in good standing with the bank. That said, if the bank does find out you’re listing the car on Turo and they have restrictions against it, one possible consequence, is that they could call the loan due, meaning you’d have to pay off the balance right away. While I haven’t personally come across anyone who’s had this happen, it’s something to keep in mind as a possibility. Hope that helps!

[@EngineerUrLife]

Hi, if you mean, what happens if you list the vehicle close to their limits, .... you're fine. They allow it to stay on past those limits, you just can't list it for the first time once it's past those. Please let me know if that's not what you meant. Thanks

Hi my question is first time user do I need turbo insurance and liberty insurence also catylac converter missing off car replace with straight pip will that be a problem my car is 2010 is it to old to list. Thank you

[@EngineerUrLife]

Hi, unfortunately, in the U.S., the car needs to be no more than 12 years old and have less than 130,000 miles. As for the insurance, yes, you would still need both, you may want to check out my insurance video for more details on that, and as for the missing cc, although unfortunately it's irrelevant in this case, since the car doesn't meet the age requirement, but just for future reference, it'll be required to undergo inspection, and that will most likely cause it to fail. Good luck. help.turo.com/en_us/vehicles-we-accept-rylmrNl45

[@jazznola5419]

What if the customers request the host to see if they can return the car 5 or 6 hours late? How do the hosts charge the customers?

[@EngineerUrLife]

If it doesn't create a conflict for you, then you should let them know and ask them to please modify the trip through the app, or call Turo if they run into any issues. The system will automatically charge any additional fees that apply.

[@HippieP629]

So I just watched the orientation videos and now my vehicle is "will be available in an hour" but I'm not ready for that. Do I delete listing?? How can I pause until I'm ready to rent it out??

[@EngineerUrLife]

No worries, you can unlist it until ready. >>> Choose Vehicles from Host menu > Select listing > Change vehicle status to “Unlisted”. Then change again when ready to list. (You can also snooze, which means you select a specific time when it'll automatically be relisted, but best bet is to just unlist for now.)

The toll transponder is attached to the car, and then at the end of the trip, you bill them for whatever tolls they incurred. You don't have to do that, but it's more convenient for them and since I think most hosts do it, I think all hosts should, just to stay competitive.
