Renting the 2005 Buick Rainier
Luup alternative and the 2005 Buick Rainier: the figures first, then how to rent it from CarmaCars. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.
Reading the spec sheet
The powertrain to know here is the 4.2L 6-cylinder, with all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
It is rated 14.7 L/100 km combined: about 44 litres every 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $22.79 at our price setting.
Inside and out
Being an SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.
When the Rainier makes sense
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
Renting it
A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. 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. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
What we ask of drivers
You need an Ontario G2 or G licence, valid for the whole rental, and to be 18 or older. The young driver fee covers drivers under 26; older drivers pay no age fee. 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. The deposit amount depends on the car and is shown on its page. Licence and identity checks happen before the booking is confirmed.
What happens when you ask for a car
The first step is a free request: which car, which dates, and how you want to get it. The offer we send lists the car we confirm and the full price. Payment happens only after you accept the offer.
The car pages show each car's rates, deposit and kilometres included. Book by the week from 7 days, or by the month up to 365 days. Book ahead if you can; 2 hours is the shortest notice we take.
Next step
Look through the cars, choose one, and send a request when it suits you.
