@rrhoover I'm with you on the on-demand experience for car rental vs. an Avis. Despite having Avis Preferred and other top tier status with the other companies, I don't think the service experience will compare. Avis may have bought Zipcar, but I don't see them trying to replicate Skurt anytime soon.

@kunalslab @rrhoover I agree Kunal. We've had a lot of customers come over to us from Hertz Gold/Avis Preferred who felt as if they just weren't getting 'Gold' or 'Preferred' service, the feedback from them has been overwhelmingly positive!

@kunalslab @rrhoover As a loyalty customer of Avis, what attracts you most about what we're doing that they do not?

@rrhoover Looks great, maybe you should team with Flic?

@tribaling @rrhoover anything is possible ;)

@hellobrent great question Brent. As we expand and become more geographically ubiquitous, we plan to build solutions to help these companies save money and manage all of their reservations centrally. I think it will also become a 'give the people what they want' situation, where corporate employees and insurance customers simply won't accept anything less than the Skurt experience.

@livejamie Hi Jamie! We're typically much more affordable (30%-50% off). Just open the app and select your dates to see your exact pricing.

@everette thank you Everette!

@epicsaurus we can scale quickly due to the fact we don't own inventory. The last time we saw a revolt from archaic taxi monopolies it didn't work out too well for them! cc: Uber

@harryhur5t awesome, so how soon before this gets to SFO and SAN?? I need a car this weekend in San Diego. Gogogo!

@epicsaurus We'll be in SFO within the coming few months ;)

@bryansarnold This is exactly why we focused on making the entire process so easy. People have never been able to rent in a few taps and complete the whole transaction on their phone before. In fact, your comment is probably the first time in history renting a car has been referred to as convenient ;)

@somewhatjustin Hi Justin. We don't charge any under 25 fees. As of right now, we have one of the lowest age requirements in the industry at just 21 yrs old. If at some point we find a way to rent to people even younger, we'll certainly do it.

@ourielohayon one more note fyi: content blockers break your sign up with facebook as you re using the new safari controller...

@ourielohayon we'll look into it now! Thanks for letting us know.

@ourielohayon Thanks and good catch!

@bjorntastic thank you Bjorn!

@ethan021021 - we plan to launch in SF Jan 2016 :)

@ethan021021 or gas mark-up fees, or shuttles, or insurance scare tactics... :)

@samyj13 most definitely! I'm really pleased you've brought this up. We too were sick of feeling like we were being ripped off. There's an inside joke in the rental car industry (so our attorney tells us), that the major rental car companies are some of the 'largest insurance companies that happen to rent cars'. This really stuck with us, it's just not how things should be, considering that most people are in fact covered under either their personal auto, or their credit cards. We plan to fix this through education of our customer, we don't 'sell' insurance, rather offer it at the lowest rate feasibly possible to our customers that truly need it.

@gregbarbosa - xD they are certainly infringing on our Trademark.

@kobaiko - That's epic - thanks Yair :D Europe is surely on our roadmap!

@mlschwab Looking forward to having you. You're going to love the experience.

@harryhur5t Absolutely! I was in Austin a few months ago and was thinking about on demand car rentals as I was staying at a house nowhere near any major public transportation routes. I noticed these small Car2Go cars parked on some of the side streets as I walked around and thought that this seemed like a good idea. I decided to jump on their website on my phone, to see if I could jump into one of these cars right away. Turns out I couldn't. I would actually need to visit a Car2Go office and verify my Driver's license and perhaps sign something. Problem was it was the weekend and the office was closed. First off, hats off to you guys for making the on boarding as smooth as you did. Being able to scan in my license and bypass the bullshit really is fantastic. I noticed right now local pick up is understandably near LAX. I honestly think if you can get a car to me anywhere in cities like Austin or LA where public transport is still figuring things out, you'll have a lifetime customer in me. Simply having the car delivered really makes your service a much more enticing option to something like ZipCar. Finally good job on making the insurance pricing clear as day through the booking process. Often the most intimidating part of renting a car is trying to decide what coverage to get while the rental agent tries to up sell you. One question, if you elect to forgo coverage because you have car insurance that covers car rentals and get into an accident. Does Skurt charge any penalties while you are getting the car repaired? One other thought. Any plans on offering pickup trucks or small moving vans down the line? Would love to be able to grab a Tacoma to pick up some wood from the lumber yard for the day.

@rustydingo that sounds like an awful experience! We are, in fact delivering locally in LA by request and plan to roll it out to other major cities soon. SF is next. With regards to the insurance, there are no penalties, your insurance should cover everything - and if it doesn't we have some options for you at the lowest prices in the industry! We certainly plan to expand our categories as we grow, stay tuned!

@jeshalom So did we, but we couldn't find it, so we built it for all of us.

@jeshalom - SF is next but NYC is definitely on our roadmap!

@jeshalom hey Jack, we aren't exclusive to airports. We in fact have select delivery zones within LA that we're testing out. By request, you can have your car delivered (and picked-up from) your hotel, airbnb or even your home!

@edumoscatelli Thanks Eduardo!
