Toyota FJ Cruiser 2013

Yeti, our 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser, got tired of the frozen tundra and wandered south, ending up in sunny Pensacola, where he awaits your next adventure to the beach. Yeti’s exterior paint is Toyota’s Iceberg White, which not only looks sharp, but also helps prevent heat from building up. The rugged and sporty styling of the FJ Cruiser, pays heritage to Toyota’s legendary Land Cruiser, bringing its robust retro look into the twentieth century. The clamshell doors allow for easier entry to the rear seats. The FJ’s distinguishable ABR front bumper adds a rugged appearance along with a two-inch lift. Side Nerf bars with foot steps make entering and exiting the vehicle much easier.

The JBL sound system has 11 speakers around the vehicle, and the subwoofer provides outstanding bass, no matter your music choice. JBL maximized the audio experience using an amplifier along with custom audio tune specific to the FJ Cruiser. The radio not only offers Bluetooth connectivity, but is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making it easy for people to listen to their favorite tunes, or else use the navigation system on their phone.

The backup camera, combined with the ultrasonic rear parking assist, make parking the vehicle much easier and safer.

The inside is nicely equipped with water-resistant premium cloth, which helps to maintain a clean appearance. The air conditioning provides ice cold air cooling the cabin down efficiently.

The rear cargo area is spacious. Secondly rear seats can be folded down for additional storage, if in 2-4 passenger configurations. Additionally, the rear cargo area has a built-in power inverter and outlet that provides 400 watts while the vehicle is parked, or 100 watts while driving.

To help provide additional light, the FJ is equipped with two front bumper mounted led lights (Note: Only use when no traffic is ahead or when you would use high beams in Florida). For more information on features, explore the FAQS section.

Note: As per Turo’s terms of service, no towing is permitted. There is a tow hitch lock. Please note that the car is equipped with several features such as A-Trac, which are not intend for everyday use, if needed refer to owner’s manual.

In addition to the vehicle description above, we would like to point out a few things that we do to try to differentiate ourselves from other Turo hosts:

Our goal is to provide the most professional, friendly, and accommodating service possible to our clients, as well as to provide well-maintained cars that are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected prior to each rental.

We equipped each of our rental cars with a SunPass transponder and purchased an annual toll pass for the Bob Sikes bridge that leads over to Pensacola Beach, which is provided on a complimentary basis to our guests. Guests that go on other roadways and/or bridges that accrue SunPass tolls will be invoiced for the cost of the tolls after the end of their rental.

We provide complimentary multi charging cables with each vehicle, which can allow charging of up to four devices at the same time, including Apple products as well as devices that require Type-C and Micro USB plugs. We ask that our guests not remove the cables from the vehicles, and to allow them to remain for the benefit of subsequent guests. These cables do wear out, and if one is found to be defective, please let us know so that we can replace it.

Recognizing that many visitors to our area are interested in going to the beach, we have installed WeatherTech floor liners in all of our cars to help control the amount of sand that is tracked into the cars and contain it before it becomes embedded in the carpeting. We believe this allows our cars to be easier to maintain by both ourselves and our guests, and to also provide the cleanest car possible to the next guest who may have it booked for rental.

The Florida and Alabama sun can be severe for a significant portion of the year. To help control the interior build-up of heat as the cars sit out in the sun unoccupied, we have had the side and rear windows on all of our vehicles professionally tinted. We believe this added feature helps ensure that the air conditioning can be more effective and our guests are kept as comfortable as possible.

The last thing worth noting is an issue that often causes some confusion is the pick-up/drop-off of the car. Please be aware that our “home” location is on Perdido Key, about 40 minutes away from the airport. For our guests that are traveling by air, we do offer delivery to the airport for a nominal fee to cover a little of our labor and costs, and we waive the delivery fee for bookings that are at least a week in duration. To this end, please make sure to select the airport delivery option if this is what you desire. Many guests miss this step and it can lead to unnecessary confusion and concerns.
