Sorry, but you’re wrong. Turo makes this easy for both the renter and the owner and you proclaiming that if you can’t afford… blah blah is pretty ridiculous. I owned a rental company. We rented boats, PWC’s, ATV, and trailers. It started out to be able to access toys and turned into a company doing $350k a year in revenue. That was difficult, Turo is easy peasy! And respectfully it’s none of your business what motivates someone. For me, it’s my 4th car and we decided to have our cake and eat it too. It’s the only thing in my house that is paying it’s own way! To each his own.
So you said you pretty much can't afford to buy it, so you are going to rent it out to complete strangers and hope they don't wreck it. If it gets wrecked then you have to worry about getting parts. Wrecked Braptor sitting at the dealership waiting on parts and not being rented out.I have a golden ticket and a dealer charging me MSRP. Still, I don’t really make enough to practically afford this thing.
I’m seriously considering parking it at a friends house who lives on upper Silver Lake in Mears for the summer and renting it out for day use on the dunes. A college roommate is the director of new initiatives at Haggerty insurance and they are developing a special package for Turo business operators that would offer full coverage in a NFI state like Michigan.
I’ve got numbers in mind for what I’d want to/need to charge on weekdays and weekends, but curious what the community here thinks they’d pay to have a BRaptor for a day. I don’t think I’d let anyone take it on roads, just the dunes.
Haggerty does stated value policy's for this purpose, I use it for track days etc.Will the insurance either Haggerty or other even cover off-road use? I doubt it. It would be like trying to get coverage for track days.
This likely depends on your area, do you allow renters to take it off road?
there, see now I’m glad I posted this thread and found this out prior to ordering. I’ll go back and talk to my Haggerty friend about this.I am a Turo host. Turo prohibits ALL off road use, even dirt roads. If a customer goes off road, they lose their protection plan entirely.
If a host advertises a car for the dunes or specifically to go off road, the host loses their protection plan also.
