Collision replacement car and the 2008 Ford Taurus
Renting the 2008 Ford Taurus as a car while yours is off the road works like any rental with us: a free request, an offer, then the keys. After a collision, your insurer may pay for the rental once your adjuster approves it. When your adjuster approves a rental, we can bill your insurance company directly.
The numbers in plain words
The engine is the 3.5L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Plan on about 35 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 11.6 L/100 km. Every 100 km costs about $17.98 in fuel at our price setting.
Space, size and seats
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Luggage space is 595 litres, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who it is for
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Rules for renters
The minimum age is 18, and the licence must be an Ontario G2 or G, valid for the whole trip. Under 26? You can rent, with a daily young driver fee shown on the car's page. At the handover we check your licence and the card in your name.
Three options cover damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your auto policy, a credit card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Deposits are listed car by car, so you can compare before you ask. We verify licences and identity for every renter, with no exceptions.
