Car hire: 1981 GMC Forward Control

Car hire: the 1981 GMC Forward Control

For a rental car, the 1981 GMC Forward Control is one of many cars on CarmaCars, each with its own page. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.

Engine and fuel

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Size and space

As a car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.

Best uses

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

In our fleet

Your request can name this exact car; the offer confirms what we can give you. This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.

What happens when you ask for a car

Nothing to pay up front: the first step is simply a request. Then we send an offer. The offer shows the price before 13% HST and the deposit. Nothing is charged until you approve it and pay.

A car's page shows the deposit and the kilometres included each day. Stay as long as you need: up to 365 days a booking, then renew. Allow 2 hours or more between your request and the pickup time.

The rules, briefly

Renters must be at least 18 and hold an Ontario G2 or G licence. From 26, no age fee applies; below it, a daily young driver fee does. A card in your name pays for the rental, and we see it with your licence at pickup.

For damage to the car itself, have your own policy (OPCF 27), a credit card with rental car coverage, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. There is a deposit for each rental, taken shortly before pickup rather than at booking. Every renter goes through the same check of licence and identity before the car is confirmed.

One more step

A request takes a few minutes and puts a real offer in front of you.
