We wanted to add a passive stream of income (well semi-passive until we have a system in place). We don't make a lot of money if any at all so we had to find a car that was inexpensive but could still make us money every month and covers its own expenses. This is the research we did to find that car in our market.

** Currently put a pause on new video requests. I’m back logged about 10+ Turo videos alone. I put the linktree in the description, if you want me to make a video on your city go there and email me the city. It’s going to be awhile before I get to it but it will definitely be made.
The "random photos" are for your protection as a Host. If anything were to happen-those "photos" will better help you in the long run.
What do you mean
Question: does Turo count a "trip" by the number of days it was rented? For example if a car has 20 trips does it mean they had the car out for 20 days or does it mean the cars has been booked 20 times.
For instance 20 trips but a "trip" could be a person doing a 5 day rental. Just trying properly analyze the data I'm looking at.
@@DeuceIsMyName no they define a trip by how many times a person completed the trip.
If a person books it for 20 days that is considered 1 trip
Thanks for getting back at me. I really appreciate it and thanks for all the info you provided. 💪🏿💪🏿
I love your content. I always think “‘man why don’t they show it step by step from the beginning; stuff is missing in this process… I can tell….” I never leave your videos feeling that way. As a mom with 2 children and working a business from home while my husband works full time, I don’t have as much time as I’d like to watch all of the videos but I plan on binging soon so thank you!!!
🙏🏽🙏🏽Thank you!! This comment really means a lot. That’s one of the main reasons we started this channel. We would watch videos about how easy everything was then try it and realize how many steps were left out and then we thought it would be cool to have footage of us once we finally make it because a lot of successful people talk about how it was in the beginning but don’t have any videos of it
@@TheBambooProject yes!!!!! I love it and I can’t wait to be like, “yup yup it’s true I remember watching the original videos before it all worked out” lol keep up the good work!
God bless you sir I saw you're video about the D.C Maryland area earlier I want to say right before I discovered your video me and my brother searched the internet for answers. Lots of results ultimately the answers were not satisfying. So we took all the information we gathered and formed our own research plan and weeks later we zeroed in on a couple of strategy's and made a safe purpose a little difficult in our market but we crunched the numbers and settled. a week or two after our purchase I discovered your video and your plan to select a car was better articulated but you came to the exact same conclusion about potential cars. Which was amazing to see. It just gave me a little extra inspiration and drive to continue in the pursuit. Thank you for helping reignite the fire. I didn't explain that I was getting nervous and doubting our process but when that fear set in I found your videos. Thank you for sharing your journey and I wish you and your family great success. Live Long and Prosper my Friend.
Man this I really appreciate you for this comment. This is why I made the videos. I was looking myself on how to research the proper car to buy that I can afford and would make me money but I couldn’t really find any videos on it. Then when I thought I found one the guy sat there for 30 minutes reading the prices from other turo listings🙃🙃
What car did you guys end up getting
Great job detailing your thought process and engaging delivery!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you I appreciate that
nice. about to watch this again and follow the steps. getting ready to make my first purchase so this is good info for me man, keep serving !!!!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Appreciate it
Brilliant video. So in depth. Exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you 🙏🏽 and
Underrated content, I’m actually going to look doing this soon, good information bro
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Good looks
It’s been working great. We got 2 more bookings after we made the video. I definitely recommend Turo. I want to get 2-3 more cars
This was a great video I’m truly stunned at how much you have helped me today.
Great content. I appreciate you keeping it simple and realistic.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you!
Gold mine of data analysis! Awesome work man.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Love the content great video and great information. I was doing similar things as well to recruit data but your way is more flushed out . I'm gonna take these tips and run with it .
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Run it up!!
From what you saw was it worth it in your city?
*Im feeling the rengoku profile pic. I just started getting into demon slayer
@@TheBambooProject Yeah this method is of researching is definitely worth it when looking at competition in your area and buying a new car for your area im in the detroit area near the airport I used a similar method to price my jeep I've already booked have 4 bookings ! So I'm definitely looking to add on atleast one more vhicle to turo and this video helped alot .
* thanks bro demon slayer is good your gonna love it. I just started makeing edits of animes and try to post every week check it out if your interested *
That’s dope 4 bookings is amazing and for sure ima check out your page
Amazing video my brother. Thank you for doing this!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you
just discovered your channel, love your data driven approach!
Shout out to all the Data Junkies out there
Love how you handle the analysis. Things I didn’t consider. Good stuff and good luck with your journey. I’m considering doing the same.
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Appreciate that and thanks same to you.
What city are you in
@@TheBambooProject here in Dallas Fort Worth. I’m 20 minutes from the airport.
So proud of y’all
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you
Nice job, guys!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you
Awesome content, I’m on the same page as y’all. I’m in San Antonio/Austin Texas area. I have three vehicles that are 5 to 6 years old RAV4, 4Runner and Sienna…I focused on reliability due to A lot of traveling in Texas …..it’s a good idea to have a mix fleet in my area due to a lot of families visiting for vacation, weekend getaway and military basic training graduation. I make around 3k profit every month. Best of luck to y’all!
That’s dope and I definitely agree. If I ever decide to get a luxury car it’ll probably be further down the line.
How many days would you say your cars are booked out each month?
Which is Your favorite?
Exactly what I needed to know! 🙏 thank you
💪🏽💪🏽
I’m not even halfway through! Dope content. I’m in Toronto, this one could be tricky. Preciate it. 🙌🏾🙏🏾
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Appreciate you
Either ma dude is a Data Scientist or Acturial Scientist, love the content.
😂😂 I’m definitely a data junkie. I learned I love looking at number more than writing them down though
Hey guys. I’m new to your channel. Congrats on your first booking. I started last summer and am expanding my fleet. I wish you all the best and can’t wait for more videos.
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you & How’s Turo been for you so far
@@TheBambooProject It has been so great for us. We started in July and haven't had it on there for the whole time because we live in a tourist town that closes down in the off seasons. All in all, we have made more than 20k with just this car. We will have two more this summer, so we hope to triple that number.
🔥🔥 20k since July is amazing. What kind of car is it?
@@TheBambooProject 21 highlander
Can you do a video on Lancaster Pa. Curious to see the market in my area. Your research & information is so thorough. Your the 1st channel I ever subscribed & hit the notification bell instantly! Congrats on your new purchase
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you ! And I have a list of 52 cities left over to record and edit. I think the only city I have on that list from Pennsylvania is Philly. After I finish the 52 videos I’m closing the door on any more city research. We have a playlist of about 13 other cites we did if you want to study those
Good video brother!👍🏾
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you
Awesome content. It touched on just about every area of concern that I have. I plan on launching early Feb. I would greatly appreciate any advice you might lend. I live exactly midway between Charlotte, NC. & Columbia, SC.. It's approximately 1 hr driving to either city. I have plenty of storage for vehicles but I'm hoping that they remain rented most ofv the time.
Thanks in advance. - Toro
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you
We just made this video about NC
ua-cam.com/video/wVYETbTOGZA/v-deo.html
I definitely think pictures are very important a lot of people seem to take sub par pictures
What is your risk tolerance because Turo has different percentage plans. You can take home 90% of your daily rate but if something happens your deductible is $2500 we are currently on the 75% plans and our deductible is $250
I also suggest getting at least 3-4 cars.
Are you going to buy or finance the cars?
Very good video. Super informative
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you
Thanks 🙏🏾 for the info 💪🏾🫡💯💯💯
No problem 💪🏽 Always happy to help
Loved the breakdown, thank you. I'm in San Fernando Valley California. would love to see a breakdown

@@TheBambooProject Sweet. Thanks so much. Looking forward to it.

good video
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you
Did you already start turo?
Just came across your video and blown away. Not only did i subscribe, but checked the notification bell! Never do that! ;-) Really awesome detailed content. I am in the Boston area, Metro West, Natick specifically. Can you do some research for this area? Also wanted to ask, since your breakdowns are great, and it is a good exercise for each time one would like to research buying a car, would you make available your spreadsheets as a template for a reasonable price? Was thinking about opening a spreadsheet and trying to recreate following yours, but thought I would ask if you would be open to making yours available. Good luck with your Turo business. Hoping to purchase my first car in the next 6 months for Turo. 🤞
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you I really appreciate all of that and don’t worry about it I’m not going to charge you for the spreadsheet. Our email address is in the bio send me an email and I’ll send you the spreadsheet
And yea no problem I can definitely do that area for you
*in the description not the bio
You are much too kind. Really really appreciate all the effort and time you have taken to share your experience. Your methodology for your research is excellent and sure to pay off great dividends. Hope to replicate it as best possible. Great.... ha....really wouldn't mind if you wanted something since it is of great value. Thank you so much and will shoot you an email now. Have been catching up on your other videos now. ;-)
🙏🏽🙏🏽 Dont even worry about it a subscribe and a genuine comment like this is good enough for me
Could I have the spreadsheet sent to me too please?
Yoooo Appleton,WI area literally by Greenbay,WI would be awesome if you did a video on that.
Just found your channel
Great video. This is what I started to do but way less detailed. Thanks

We are a tourist island and I don’t know what’s the best vehicle to get here but we have our own personal Stephen here on island as well that’s invested at about 30+ vehicles, which is a lot here. Thanks in advance and keep up the great work.

Hey, I live in minneapolis and winter times are rough here. Was wondering if turo was a good model to get into on this side of things or you wouldn't recommend it. I'm sure rentals slow down during the winter so just looking for opinion
I’m not too sure I haven’t checked out the Minneapolis market.
What are the reasons people go to Minneapolis
I think its better to compare cars not by brands but by the same class of cars. For example it could be huge difference between toyota land cruiser and toyota auris :) so I think you should move forward and firstly estimate what classes of cars are booked more often among your favorable price category. Its not to useful to know which car brand represented widely than others but its neccesary to know your prospective clients demands: are they family guys or single ones, do they need extra space or allroad car or maybe it should be convertable coupe or if its overpopulated region with lack of space it should be something like fiat 500. I'm far from beliveing in people adequacy and analitic skills for most of them, thats why i think that there are always exists some free niche for you.
Please do Atlanta

Good info bruh! Looking into two cities. I go back and forth from Houston tx and Milwaukee wi. Wondering the best vehicle as well as if a B market city like Milwaukee has more benefits or is Houston best option because of population?. Thanks!

Milwaukee
ua-cam.com/video/JreyvYF8tZ4/v-deo.html
I think it depends on your strategy if you need the money I would to a higher population to start because there is less risk if you want to jump in really heavy I would say a b market because most cities don’t have hosts with a lot of cars
