Hope this is a fun little discussion, not overly serious. I live in Columbus and have a stupid clown car that is underused and should've never been purchased. Whoops. Oh, and it's financed. Double whoops. Have been planning to get rid of it in the near future, but I've been waiting to see if Columbus would get a car share and if I could just go completely car less or if I'd need to buy something cheap. Well, as of tomorrow, we will have car2go.
This past weekend I was in San Fran and my buddy was using uber to get around. If anyone doesn't know what uber is, I'm not going to fully describe, but it basically makes it easy for regular folks with cars to be ad-hoc taxi drivers. Anyway, I got to thinking maybe I could do that.
There are many obvious considerations, such as whether one would want to spend evenings hauling people around, possible safety issues, cost versus benefit in terms of the degradation of the car, but... what do people think: ditch the car and go with car2go or double down and be an uber taxi driver?
Anybody have experience with either?
PS, the chances of the latter are super slim, but it's still fun to ask.
