I am in Calgary and I don't use my car at all. I haven't driven it in over a year. I'm wondering if there is a car sharing app or an app where I can rent out my car in Canada.

I can't see this being even possible. Let alone a good idea. Why don't you just sell it?

Just for fun - What type of car?

Aren't you the dude that was asking for financial advice? Why don't you just sell it if you're not using it?

He's upside down on it.

You could try renting it to people who need to drive from BC to AB. Lots of upstanding people in Kelowna need to transport stuff in clean cars.

Just in case it isn't obvious already, your insurance would be void.

He's upside down on it, and he didn't like our advice to sell this car, so he's looking to take on a bunch of risk on the dim hope that it'll help his financial situation.

Bud, you had several genuine offers for assistance in that other thread. Go look at those again. This isn't the way.

Not to be rude, but do you have the slightest clue how people treat rental equipment, especially cars? You might as well just send it to the wreckers.

Just sell the car man.

Insurance is the problem. You car will be trashed and you will be even more upside down than before.

If you are upside down on the car now, you will be upside down until the loan is paid off. If you don't have money to service that debt, cut the lost so at least you have less debt.

Have you seek help like everyone told you to?

Fuck all y'all. I'll do it for $7.22/day, but only with unlimited KM's :) track days also need to be allowed.

Edit: that is a bit harsh, so if track days are allowed, I'll pay you $7.43/day. You supply the tires and race gas bitch. DO IT.

Seriously, OP. start an illegitimate taxi service for weekend nights down town. As long as you're not some creepy fuck you should make a few hundred dollars a weekend. Help pay for your shit.

Also update your other thread.:whipped:

I've imagined buying a yellow B5 S4 wagon and picking people up downtown. Drive them home 'getaway in stockholm' style. Film it with a GoPro.

Actually, since it's an Impala SS, can I paint it up full Nascar spec and use it for racing? I'm totally down for a few cup races, I'll bump my offer to $8.13/day if you'd be down for it.

Ha! Do you think drunk passengers in the back of a car being driven at high speeds will care about using one?

I always thought you were able to lend your car out and that your insurance would cover it if the person gets into an accident.

I think it's IF the person driving it has insurance themselves?

Hmm, you're right. There is nothing proprietary about it. What stops some bum from China doing this and running OP out of business? I'm out.

As long as there's no commercial activity going on, like driving the car in exchange for money. Now if he just wanted to let random people drive his car, go for it...lol.

What if the random person just wanted a ride and "forgot" some money when he got out?;)
