Turo is SoCal only, for the most part. Some will let you go roll up the PCH, others want you to stay local.

Seem to be 100's of cars available in Florida. Looks very good, and such a spread of cars from 14 year old Corollas ($30 a day) to 2021 Tesla 3's at around $120 a day and plenty of Mustangs and Chargers fro $60 to $70 a day.

In 2009 I had a Dodge Ram from and back to Atlanta. My road trip took in Memphis, Nashville, Dollywood and Savannah, with a couple of overnights to break up the longer drives; I don't think any one driving day was over 300 miles. Perfectly acceptable on US roads. The Deep South is great to drive across, like a scaled-up Lake District. Since then I've had a couple of Suburbans too and they are just lovely on a long trip. North Carolina (reachable from Atlanta) is nice too; there's a WW2 battleship moored up in a creek that's worth a tour (USS North Carolina, appropriately!). Drive relatively slowly (not enough to hold up traffic, obvs) and you should see some nice old cars and pickups parked here and there. Keep a camera to hand!

That's our plan for wherever we go. Get out onto the back roads and have a look for tye hidden.
