Thank you for the follow-up. I have recently acquired a couple of Insights, and I now have 2X HCH2 that are going to be driven much less.

I've never heard of relay rides. Do you have any tips for someone looking to make their car available for that service?

Thanks,

Steve

I've done it for about 18 months now - feel free to check out my rental at https://relayrides.com/car-rental/ph...da-civic/21098.

Advice? Keep it clean, keep it available, and be nice to people. I think the reviews I have and the # of rentals I have contribute to a positive impression of me and my car.

I've had mostly good experiences, but there have been a few renters that weren't so great. But I charge a late fee here and there and a cleaning fee here and there, and all is good. I paid $4,250 for the car and I have brought in just over $7,500 from renting it. Definitely a good deal, and I'll keep doing it with my next car for sure.

Good luck!

My brother has used a ride rental before, I don't know if it is the same one or not. He was hitting it hot and heavy a couple months ago. I don't know that he needed to, but he was in the market for a new vehicle and figured it would be a good way to do something real world test driving and not have to hassle with a dealer.

OP here - I passed 200,000 miles a few weeks ago. Somewhere over 201k now.

Great little car!
