Ride Sharing Your Bronco

[BAMBALAM]

If I purchase a Bronco it will be my family's 3rd vehicle and more of a weekend toy. It's not a necessity but a want. As an enthusiast I've dumped more money than I want to think about into this hobby. I've been thinking of ways to monetize the purchase and ridesharing came to mind. On a trip to California I used Turo to rent a porsche 911. The owner said putting the car on Turo had more than paid for the note and maintenance. So basically he has a "free" sports car.

I'm assuming when the Bronco is released it will have a lot of people wanting to try it out and/or the appeal of renting an open air 4x4 would make it easy to promote.

Has anyone considered this approach if its not going to be your daily driver?

I would think your insurance would go up significantly.

I don't want them to even touch the plastic covering the knobs, handles, seats etc. and I sure as hell don't want anyone driving my Bronco.

If I had a car like a Honda Civic or something, I would consider it. However, with a vehicle that is made to go off-road, there's just too much to go wrong there.

I'd allow people to rent it as long as they made a $60,000 cash deposit first.

hell noo brother! you're on the channel that doesn't let total idiots drive their bronco.

I don't buy used - just for the idea that someone else has farted in the seat. No way, am I letting someone share my seat.

[Stitches1974]

Oh hell no....

This times 1000. No way in hell is anyone driving my vehicles other than me.

LOL, nobody likes their new vehicle full of a bunch of yahoo's! Especially when you're not in it.

I'd rent yours maybe if I was taking on a really tough trail where I knew I was going to get some new scratches, and be rough on the underside....That's why someone would rent a Bronco, to put it to work.
