Luup alternative with this car
If a rental car is the plan, the 2013 Ford Taurus is worth a look; here is why. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Specs, explained
Its powertrain is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
At 9.3 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 28 litres of fuel. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $43.26 at our price setting.
A good match for
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
The Taurus in everyday use
Being a large sedan, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. With 566 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

The steps
Start with a request. Choose the car, the pickup time and the return time, and send it without paying anything. A real person reviews your request and sends an offer with the price spelled out. The booking is confirmed when you approve the offer and pay it.
You can check any car's calendar before you send a request. From 7 days, the weekly rate applies; up to 365 days, a trip never costs more than the monthly rate. With 2 hours of notice or more, a same-day pickup can work when the car is free.
Renting: the basics
You must be 18 or older and hold a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. Under 26, a young driver fee applies for each day of the rental. At pickup, have your original licence and the payment card ready.
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. Each car shows its deposit, and we take it about 1 hour before pickup. Additional drivers can be added; each one meets the same rules and signs the agreement.
