Why Carshare?
Not everybody needs or wants to own a car. Especially when you consider that most of us only drive our cars a few hours a week, which means we spend a lot of money for them to just sit there depreciating. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense in urban settings!
Carsharing is a great way to save money by only paying for a car when you actually need it. According to AAA, the average cost to own a car is $9,000 a year when you factor in car payments, gas, parking, insurance, and maintenance. That's a lot!
​
Using a carshare car a handful of times a month for those necessary trips can save you thousands of dollars a year.
​
Carshare is great for:
-
Trips to Costco
-
Meetings
-
Healthcare Appointments
-
Visiting Friends or Family In the Suburbs
-
Running Errands
-
Picking up Aunt Ethel from the airport
-
And more...
