Yep, that's the exact rental car company MO. By providing the demand side, we're allowing car dealers to do what car rental companies have been doing for the last 50 years.
- hef19898 7y agoJust a thought on that. I have the impression that your business model is a platform, right? In practical terms you will one day have to manage the schedule of your rentals to allow dealerships to sell cars whenever they want, regardless of the booking situation of a given car, somewhere above you already hinted at that problem. This becomes easier with scale as more comparable cars will be available. But at that point you basically have a rental car company to run. Unless you figure out a way to do that automatically, which would be a great value proposition in itself.
- gwbas1c 7y agoHonestly, I prefer renting a car for a weekend before I buy it. Two years ago I rented a Pacifica to move a snowblower, and my wife liked it so much that she talked me into buying one. The dealer was confused when we told them we didn't need to test-drive the minivan.
