Agreed. One phrase comes to mind over people renting their CT out on Turo right now.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I saw him say that. By the time he gets them, the exclusivity will drop and he'll be left holding a bag.

Is it mean that I wouldn’t feel bad? It probably is

Tbh, if that stupid game was the only way I could afford my truck, I'd do it. I'd rather play stupid games then watch from the closet

It would be lame for sure but turo has insurance. And you can get another CT later when the prices comes down lol.

But I'm not getting fs either way lol

I'll bet when AWD is selling for $59K, a lot of people will regret not finding a way to recapture that $40K, when the opportunity was ripe.
That $59K AWD will be a better truck than todays truck, as well.
Its important to think about a purchase like this in one of 2 ways. Its a member of the family, and cost and value do not apply. Or, its a product, purchased for a task, and it has diminishing value. If you're in the latter camp, then buy it in the name of a business. Section 179 it, and get maximum insurance. Then rent it for enough to justify the expense, and try to get your cost to own below $50K after all expenses. Hopefully you had the forethought to reserve a second truck. That one can be your youngest child. In the mean time, you'll be able to enjoy an over priced toy, at minimal cost to you. #Crowdfunding

I think one key strategy among CT owners is to come together and stick to a price on Turo if we're going to monetize as much as possible. The moment someone tries to scrape to the bottom its over. If everyone can agree on a price; it keeps the higher net worth renters using it; limiting your chances (I emphasize limiting because you never know).

$1,000 a day weeds out a lot of the idiots.

If I were to rent mine, I would also have a separate agreement aside from Turo's that states they can't purposely try to cause any damage or harm to the vehicle and can be held liable. Also throw in a no off-roading clause.

1000 makes sense consider it’s a rental with huge liabilities. I’m in RI, probably 1 of maybe 6 (though I’ve only seen 2 orders including mine on the chart). I’d have to get with the Rhode Island guys which would be pretty easy in the smallest state if (very BIG if) I took the Turo route.
