Hemond Champion Author Providence Posts:8,145 Points:133,105 Joined:Oct 2006	Message Posted: Nov 18, 2012 7:30:28 AM Ignore Hemond Report Abuse I like the idea of this. I've been researching pros and cons since hearing about this idea. I'm planning on getting a newer car and was going to give my older one to a relative. But now I may keep it to rent out. But first I'm going to join the organization and try a few rentals out. See how it works.
