Collision replacement car with this car
Want to know if the 1997 Ford Thunderbird suits a car while yours is off the road? Read on. 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.
What the specs mean
It is powered by the 3.8L 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.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 37 litres, from its 12.4 L/100 km rating. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $19.22 at our price setting.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
The Thunderbird in everyday use
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The trunk holds 425 litres by the EPA's count: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Getting this car from us
Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Renting: the basics
From age 18, with an Ontario G2 or G licence, you can send a request. There is no maximum age. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee each day. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.
Third-party liability is included in the rate. For damage to the car, you choose one of three options before pickup. The deposit comes about 1 hour before you get the car, not at booking. If another person will drive, add them; they go through the same check.
Getting the car booked
To book, you request the car for your dates. There is no charge to send it and no obligation. Someone on our team confirms the car is free for those dates and sends you an offer with every charge listed. If you approve, you pay and the car is yours for those dates.
Every car has its own daily, weekend, weekly and monthly rate. The monthly rate covers a booking of up to 365 days. With 2 hours of notice or more, a same-day pickup can work when the car is free.
