How we compare to a typical DFW Slingshot rental
Slingshot rentals based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metro typically charge around $150 for one hour and $200 for two hours, plus a refundable deposit of $150–$500 depending on your age and the length of the rental. Our shortest package, Drive & Go, costs less than half of a comparable hourly rate — and unlike a typical DFW rental, there's no deposit theater at checkout.
| Typical DFW Slingshot rental | Ennis Slingshot Experience | |
|---|---|---|
| 1-hour rate | ~$150 | $69.99 (Drive & Go) |
| 2-hour rate | ~$200 | $79 solo / $149 two-up |
| Deposit | $150–$500 | None |
| Insurance | Often extra or bundled at a fee | Included in every package |
We don't say this to claim we're the cheapest option anywhere in Texas — some scenic-tour operators elsewhere in the state price similarly. We say it because the friction that keeps people from trying a Slingshot — deposits, add-on insurance fees, pickup logistics — is exactly what our pricing removes.
Why we price it this way
We didn't set out to be the cheapest Slingshot rental in Texas — a couple of scenic-tour operators elsewhere in the state land in a similar range. We set out to remove the specific friction that keeps people from ever trying one: a deposit that ties up your card for days, a mandatory insurance upcharge on top of the listed rate, and pickup logistics that make a two-hour idea feel like a half-day project. Every price on this page is the actual total, aside from the two optional add-ons — a helmet or a photo package — that you choose yourself.
A note on Festival Weekend pricing
During the Ennis Bluebonnet Trails Festival — historically the second or third weekend of April — demand for Slingshot rides in Ennis is higher than any other weekend of the season, and we expect availability to be genuinely tight. Festival Weekend Ride pricing hasn't been finalized yet; check our booking page for current availability and rates as the season approaches.
Coming from outside Ennis
Ennis is about 35 miles south of downtown Dallas on I-45, roughly a 37-minute drive. If you're weighing the trip, Near Dallas and Near Fort Worth cover drive times and how to build a full day around your ride, including a stop through the Ennis Bluebonnet Trails.
Paying for a gift, not just a ride
If you're buying for someone else rather than booking your own slot, a gift card covers any package on this page and lets the recipient pick their own April date. It's priced the same as booking directly — there's no markup for gifting it.
