Why Pick Dream Charters Over Turo?
When it comes to car rentals, there are a lot of options. Of course, there are the big names: Budget, Alamo, Enterprise, Hertz, Enterprise, and Thrifty are the top national brands.
But most of those companies are focused on renting normal, nothing-special cars to vacationers and people whose vehicles are in the shop.
Who do you go to for an upgrade? A luxury rental for a special date night, your wedding exit vehicle, to impress a client, or for commercial enterprises such as music videos, photography, etc?
When Turo launched nationwide in 2012, many folks saw an opportunity to rent the car of their dreams at an affordable rate, and the Airbnb of car rentals has an unbeatably large selection of vehicles. After all, they crowdsourced the entire country’s garages.
So why should you pick Dream Charters over Turo?
Dream Charters vs. Turo
The biggest con to Turo is the fact that it’s a crowdsourced car provider, and most folks in the crowd are driving average vehicles.
When you want a luxury car rental, you want luxury. It’s kind of the point. Your goal is to catch eyes, impress bystanders, and cross your dream car off your bucket list. It’s hard to do that with a 2008 Subaru Forester.
Dream Charters carries the best while Turo carries the rest.

Dream Charters carries the best while Turo carries the rest.
While luxury Turo cars from the current year are few and far between, almost all of Dream Charters’ fleet is from 2021 or later.
The definition of luxury is far different on Turo than at Dream Charters. A quick search of “Elite” cars available in Houston include Maserati, Corvette, Porsche, Cadillac, and Land Rover.
That’s it? All fine cars to be sure, but no Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Mclaren, Rolls Royce, or Mercedes Benz? Talk about disappointing.
The Cons of Turo
For one, scams are common on Turo. They can be avoided, but they’re out there. It’s very easy for a person to blame you for preexisting vehicle damage if you don’t take extensive measures to document the condition of the car when you first get it, as well as when you return it. This could leave you with a bill for hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
Secondly, you have to communicate and deal with the car owner directly to exchange keys. People are flaky and can be poor communicators. This means sometimes you can have a hard time getting on the same page as the person you’re renting from. Some weird situations can also arise.
Thirdly, there are wild variances in the condition of the available vehicles. Although all the damage to the car should be well-documented, you’re aiming to rent a top-quality car. You don’t want a damaged daily driver, you want a factory-perfect dream machine.
Fourth – there is zero consistency from one rental to another. Each car is owned by a different person, and you can easily let your guard down after a few positive experiences then get burned down the line. With Dream Charters you get the same great experience every time.
The Dream Charters Experience
While Turo has some nice, affordable cars, they don’t have the pinnacle of luxury. Turo is a fine choice for your cross-country family road trip or for a daily driver while your car is in the shop. But Dream Charters is on a different playing field.
Our goal is to provide the cars that people spend their entire lives dreaming of driving. We want to make sure everyone has access to the vehicles that only the 1% can afford to purchase.
With Dream Charters you get the latest models of the world’s most exotic cars – all with the most premium of upgrade packages, all in excellent condition, and with a world of convenience and customer service.
