I've got a great startup idea - airbnb but it's for renting out your car. Nothing could possibly go wrong!

  Doesn't that already exist?

    ... does it? I've seen stuff like zipcar but that's centralized ownership.

  New Zealand had a service called YourDrive[1] that was pitched exactly as "AirBnB for cars"[2]. I used it a couple of times and it was great, super affordable. Unfortunately they didn't survive the Covid crunch.

    Thanks for the link. I once again find myself in that exceedingly strange zone where satire and reality become undifferentiable and I begin questioning my understanding of the world.
