For a rental car, here is what the 1998 Ford Taurus brings, and how to request one. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.

The figures, translated

Under the hood: the 3.0L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

It is rated 12.3 L/100 km combined: about 37 litres every 300 km. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $19.07, and a 300 km weekend about $57.21.

When the Taurus makes sense

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

What to expect from the Taurus

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. The trunk holds 1,076 litres by the EPA's count: bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

Getting this car from us

A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. This exact car is not in our fleet at the moment; a request asks us to look for one. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.

Requirements

Drivers need to be 18 or over, holding an Ontario G2 or G licence for the whole rental. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee for each day, shown on each car's page. Bring the card in your name that paid for the booking.

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. We take the deposit shortly before pickup and return it after the car comes back. Additional drivers can be added; each one meets the same rules and signs the agreement.

Your request, our offer, your keys

To get started, send a request for the car and dates. You are not charged for it. We confirm and price it, and the offer arrives in your account and by email. If you approve, you pay and the car is yours for those dates.

Prices on each car's page are before tax, and the offer adds the tax. The monthly rate covers a booking of up to 365 days. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.
