Renting the 1998 Ford Explorer

For a car while yours is off the road, the 1998 Ford Explorer is one of many cars on CarmaCars, each with its own page. When your adjuster approves a rental, we can bill your insurance company directly. After a collision, your insurer may pay for the rental once your adjuster approves it.

Specs, explained

It runs the 4.0L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Its combined rating is 13.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 41 litres for 300 km. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $64.17 at our price setting.

Who it is for

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Inside and out

As a van, it puts space for people and luggage first.

Can I rent it?

Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.

Who qualifies

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more are the starting point. A young driver fee applies each day for drivers under 26. Cars marked "no credit card needed" accept a debit card in your name; the others need a credit card.

Before pickup, choose how damage to the car is handled: your auto policy (OPCF 27), your credit card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Expect a deposit before every rental; its amount is set by the car. Each renter is checked the same way, before the booking is confirmed.

Booking in plain terms

A request is free and takes a few minutes: the car, your dates, and pickup or delivery. We confirm and price it, and the offer arrives in your account and by email. Your card is charged only when you approve the offer.

You can check any car's calendar before you send a request. A booking can be a single day or up to 365 days. Allow 2 hours or more between your request and the pickup time.
