The 2021 Ford Explorer Base: Courtesy car

If a car while yours is off the road is the plan, the 2021 Ford Explorer Base is worth a look; here is why. 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.

The Explorer and Mapleton

Mapleton is about 837 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area. If you need it in Mapleton itself, send a request and we will tell you honestly whether we can help.

Places around Mapleton include Barretts Crossroads, Murfreesboro and Chowan Beach.

Reading the spec sheet

It uses the 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo and 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 9.9 L/100 km, which means roughly 30 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $15.35 to drive 100 km.

Who the Explorer suits

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Room inside

As a full-size SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

Getting this car from us

There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay.

Before you rent

The minimum age is 18, and the licence must be an Ontario G2 or G, valid for the whole trip. Young drivers, under 26, can rent too, with a fee for each day. The card must be in the driver's name, and we check it with the licence in person.

Third-party liability is included in the rate. For damage to the car, you choose one of three options before pickup. A deposit applies to every rental. It is shown on the car's page and taken about 1 hour before pickup. We check every driver; it takes a few minutes and protects everyone.

Getting the car booked

Choose the car and your times, then send a request. A request does not hold the car, and it costs nothing. We confirm the details and send an offer. It lists the rental, any delivery and any add-ons. Say yes to the offer and pay; that is when the booking is made.

Each car page lists what is included and what costs extra. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. Leave at least 2 hours between your request and the pickup.
