Fox Rent A Car

I'm heading for my yearly snowboarding week in CO in February, has anyone used Fox Rent A Car before? If so, how was your experience? I have always used ERAC in the past but their prices, especially at the airport, are completely insane.

Used them a few times. Cheap, lesser cars than the competition but that doesn’t mean much lately. Had an Elantra from enterprise recently when I was rear ended by a motorcycle on the freeway. Got it with cig burns in the driver seat, cracked window and a former collision that left the front bumper torn and spray painted. This was a 2020.

So, don’t expect much but at least it will be modern and consistent with enterprise

I more or less just use Turo for all my rental car needs now. Unless there's nothing available in the market I'm looking in.

If I was going anywhere but snowy Colorado I'd consider Turo, but when I'm done with the car after a week of snowboarding it's beyond filthy and I don't want to have to bother with cleaning someone else's car. I did consider it though.

Cool, thanks for the input. I'm really interested in function and price more than anything else. I think I'll give them a shot, ERACs pricing at the airport this year is unlike anything I've ever seen before.

+1 for Turo. I have a friend with something like a dozen cars here in Denver including SUVs. If you really get the inside dirty take it to a local full service like Bear's and call it a day.

I would, but I just don't have time for that stuff. I need to be able to leave our condo and drive directly to the airport. I like using rental companies; part of the draw is I can give them back an absolutely filthy car and not get billed for it. Turo is not going to work for me.

I've used Fox before. No issues. I would still do Turo and pay for the car wash / cleaning up front so you don't have to worry about it.

Another vote for Fox here. Used them repeatedly last year at the height of Covid in FL.
No issues at all - shuttle showed up on time to/from airport - and the cars were clean
