Hunter's comment
If you're tired of renting from big rental agencies or hourly, and Uber and Lyft don't make sense for your mobility needs, then check out Turo, the peer-to-peer car-sharing app for their marketplace.
Features for renters
- Over 850 car makes and models to choose from
- Daily rental rates are reasonable
- According to the car-listing requirements, it looks like you can't get a salvaged car.
I installed this app and looked for cars in Philadelphia and Florida and found matches right away.
How it works for car owners
- Get paid directly within 5 days of the trip's end, via direct deposit
- Let Turo automatically set your car's daily rental price or you can set the price manually yourself
- Your typical earnings are 65% to 85% of the trip price
- Insurance: you are protected with $1 million dollars of coverage ... Be sure to read the actual fine print on the website for current info!
- You can easily list your car by filling out a short form and adding pics of your car and your license plate number. Note that it requires you not have a salvaged vehicle. Be sure to go to the website for the latest requirements.
My review:
I was surprised at how many nice-looking shiny cars there were, including the Porsche Boxter for $295 a day and the Tesla!
For the renter: Be sure to read the fine print to make sure you don't get charged extra fees etc.
Conclusion
If you find a good car and good car owner nearby and do your homework, then this could be a great alternative.
UX Critique:
Renter should be able to search by zip code. Currently, when you enter the zip code, it shows you address number matches in either a random area or the last area you searched.
