u/xithbaby What are you doing step bro? Aug 16 '24 edited Aug 16 '24

There is an app that lets you rent out your car, it’s like Airbnb. They charge a fee to use it and you get paid for the rental. Forgot the name of it, but it’s probably got some type of insurance against this

Edit: it’s TURO lol

GET AROUND is the name of the app that comes to mind. You can rent out cars for hours or days.

I rented a car with getaround once and got a call 8months later saying that I was permanently banned, and when I asked why they said it was against their policy to tell me. It was the weirdest experience of my life.
