Car service: 2021 Ford Explorer Timberline in Basic

Car service with this car

Car service and the 2021 Ford Explorer Timberline: the figures first, then how to rent it from CarmaCars. Chauffeur bookings are by the hour, two hours minimum; send a request and we reply with the vehicle we can offer and the price.

A note on Basic

If you need it in Basic itself, send a request and we will tell you honestly whether we can help. Basic is about 1,527 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.

Next door to Basic are East Enterprise, Roy and West Enterprise.

Engine and fuel

The 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo does the work, through a 10-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Four-wheel drive helps on rough ground and deep snow; on dry roads it behaves like any other vehicle.

The EPA rates it at 11.4 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 34 litres. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $53.01 at our price setting.

Space and size

The higher seat of a full-size SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

When the Explorer makes sense

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

Driver basics

Our minimum age is 18; an Ontario G2 or G licence is required. From 26, no age fee applies; below it, a daily young driver fee does. The payment card and the licence must match the driver's name.

The CarmaCars Protection Plan is one of three options for damage to the car; the others are OPCF 27 on your policy or a card with rental car benefits. Deposits differ by car. Each car's page shows its amount. Licence and identity checks happen before the booking is confirmed.

Booking, step by step

Requests come first at CarmaCars. You name the car and the dates, and we take it from there. You then get an offer from us with the car, the dates and the total before tax. Offers stay open for 24 hours. Approve one and pay to book the car.

Each car shows its rate for a day, a weekend day, a week and a month. Weekly pricing starts at 7 days, and a trip never costs more than that rate for a week. With 2 hours of notice or more, a same-day pickup can work when the car is free.
