# Peer-to-peer rental vehicle pick

For one city and a shortlist of three to six models. A good host car earns a high daily rate, books often, is cheap to buy and holds its value.

## 1. Read local demand

1. Search @[Turo · Search](alexandria:turo-com/car-rentals/search) around the city's coordinates for each make on the shortlist. Keep model, year, indicative daily price, completed trips and rating per car.
2. Open the busiest examples with @[Turo · Vehicle](alexandria:turo-com/car-rentals/vehicle) for listing detail and a priced quote for a sample trip.

## 2. Price the purchase

3. Search @[Hertz Car Sales · Search inventory](alexandria:hertzcarsales-com/vehicles/search_inventory) near the city for each model and year range. Note price and mileage, and confirm availability with @[Hertz Car Sales · Check availability](alexandria:hertzcarsales-com/vehicles/check_availability).

## 3. Price the exit

4. Get @[Kelley Blue Book · Book value](alexandria:kbb-com/vehicles/book_value) for the same trim at today's mileage and at mileage plus two years of hosting, to estimate depreciation.

## 4. Check reliability

5. Pull @[NHTSA · Vehicle complaints](alexandria:nhtsa-gov/recalls/vehicle_complaints) for each model year and note recurring failures that would take a rental car off the road.

## Write the pick

- **Model table:** median Turo daily price, median completed trips, purchase price, two-year value loss, complaint themes.
- **Payback sketch:** months to recover purchase price at the user's assumed utilisation; ask for utilisation and costs rather than inventing them.
- **Pick:** top model with reason, plus a runner-up.
- **Caveats:** Turo prices are indicative for a sample date; trip counts are lifetime per car.
- **Sources:** cite Turo vehicle ids, VINs and complaint counts. Say what could not be found.
