    Premium priced cars like this work well on Turo. High net worth individuals are typically renting to experience a nice vehicle and treat it well. However, as soon as you start renting a car at a lower cost, that's where the troubles can start.
    Tesla Model 3's rent for as low as $59 a day where I am at since there are so many available. That attracts a lot of knuckle heads who want to rent it to race around and smoke in it, etc. Terrible experience as an owner. I personally would not suggest putting any vehicle on Turo that fetches less than $200 a day.
    Glad your experience has been good so far. That wrap looks great!

    I used to host 6 cars on turo, damaged claims were nothing but nightmares. Even now after I've stopped doing turo, my personal car insurance is still tied to accidents that other people had, and I had nothing to do with. Never again Turo, never again

    • @NicholasMarcelin
      @NicholasMarcelin  Před 13 dny +14

      You were not supposed to use your personal insurance with Turo. The claims should have gone through the Turo provided insurance company and should have had nothing to do with you. Outside of the fact that of course your car was out of commission for a little while. There is a chance that Turo’s insurance doesn’t cover the damages and that means that you did not properly take the necessary images to show the proof that your vehicle was not damaged before it went on a tour.

    I had my Model S wrapped with PPF and put it on Turo for 5 years. Worked out well, but PPF can still get damage and not cheap to replace. I would do it again on the S. Not wrapping my Cybertruck though when I can just buff out anything from Turo rentals and not have to worry about paint or PPF. The finger prints are an inconvenience, considering doing a metal ceramic coat or ProtectaClear.

    Great recap. But my neighbors did hear me laugh when you said ‘don’t buy one and put it on Turo and compete with me.’ First, it’s going to vary wildly city by city; b) you have no idea who these people are - if they have cash to make the payments then it’s their choice. Many Turo just to get part of their monthly nut covered.

    • @NicholasMarcelin
      @NicholasMarcelin  Před 2 dny

      Thanks for watching! I think you slightly misunderstood my message there. I never said you should not put one on Turo, what I said was not to buy one with the intentions of making a profit solely on Turo TODAY. By the time you get your vehicle, which is about three months after your order, your ROI is not gonna be great enough to justify that 100k purchase. You’ll be left with a high risk vehicle by the next year as more and more of these are produced. It’s not a good business move if you are purchasing it solely for profit.
      However, I did suggest that it’s a good idea for those who already was going to buy one for personal use, those who already have one, or anyone just trying to help with the payment. Specifically those who have a second car like in my situation.

      Went back and watched the part of the video where he talks about the $2000 profit and he does’t say net or gross. He shows a screenshot that I’m guessing is from Turo showing his profit, so I’m guessing he’s not taking into account the ppf. However, if you look at the ppf as something he wanted to do anyway then I guess it doesn’t have to be part of the calculation. I’ve seen a few Cybertrucks whizzing down the road, in shining stainless steel. Impressive in a way, but I’m not a fan. Spending thousands of dollars to prevent fingerprints is one of several things I don’t like. To each their own.

      @NicholasMarcelin  Před 7 dny

      You’d replace it per panel. So since there was 11 pieces at about $3k total cost, I’d say roughly $275 per panel. Now of course that’s an extremely rough estimate as each panel is differently sized. But you get the idea. The beautiful part about PPF however is that it is 10x thicker than vinyl and is self healing when introduced to heat. So scratches and light chips shouldnt Merritt a replacement anyway.

    $20,000 in a year profit for CT that will drop $20,000 in value after 1 year puts you in a negative after you include your time. You have 1 year until Tesla does price drops. That means even if you don't put a single mile on your CT, you have to lower the price. Add the wear and tear plus mileage after 1 year.

    Residual income? you still need to post the car you have to clean the car you have to meet with the person you have to clean the inside of the car... this is not residual this is just an additional source of income which is great and I'm happy for you!
    Residual income would be a dividend paying stock. Interest from a high yield savings account. Royalties from a song or book. Royalties when you don't have to put additional effort into making money or else is just another job... which is great!

    • @NicholasMarcelin
      @NicholasMarcelin  Před 4 hodinami

      Nah, it’s residual. Residual income is another way of saying passive income. Which means, you set up a business and the business runs in the background independently from you and you make a profit from it. This is that. You post the vehicle on the platform once. Which can be a kin to purchasing a portfolio of stocks for the first time. You can set scheduled messages to automatically speak to guests. Since this is a Tesla, everything is remote. We leave the vehicle parked in a designated parking spot, and the guest picks it up later. We have charging on site and don’t have to worry about that. Guests should be returning the vehicle at the same level of charge anyway.
      Like I said in the video, yes, my first booking was in person, but you can do all of them remotely thereafter. Turo takes care of the rest.
      The only major concern is cleaning then. I do this once or twice a month, but mostly my assistant from my photography studio handles that, which is where the truck resides anyway when a booking is approaching.
      Just like stocks, or real estate investments, you periodically have to check in on your investment. Move things around, reinvest for example. But for the most part, you sit back and watch. Which is literally what I do through the Turo and Tesla apps. Turo is not passive income for everyone, but with the tools at my disposal, it is for me. A good way to gauge if something is truly passive, is if you can take a long vacation elsewhere and not have to worry about the business running successfully. I just came from a two week cruise. I stand by what I said, But thanks for watching!

      @@NicholasMarcelin Owning properties is not a residual income unless you hire a property manager. If you have to put any of your own effort into a project it can no longer be a residual. If you own a property and save money on the side to cover when the house is not rented and you have a property manager then it's a residual if you have profits.
      If you're using resources from another business to clean the cars then yes it would be a residual if you used the profits from the car to pay back the original business that lends you the human resources.
      We can both agree that listing a car on Turo and having to clean it and to deal with insurance claims is not the same as somebody who has 10 million dollars in treasury bonds and are getting a residuals from the government.

      I’ll just leave this here:
      “A car, also know as an automobile, is a motor vehicle normally with four wheels. Most definitions of cars state that they run primarily on roads, and seat one to eight people.”

    The monthly earnings will be nowhere near the depreciation.. Enjoy.

      This is irrelevant. Are you aware that every vehicle depreciates? Moreso, even if the vehicle depreciated to half, if the truck maintains this profit flow. In about 2.5 years, I can sell the truck at a profit. Even if it depreciated from 100k to 20k. This only applies to people who aren’t using this vehicle as a business expense. But thanks for watching.

      @@hobo1704 a base Model X 2022, which is a 2 year old car is currently going for $120 - $150/day on the platform. Less than 10 days of rentals at that price would continue to pay the car note of this vehicle. That’s a depreciation of 60% per day in revenue. It would still be profitable
