Ask HN: Is it worth it to list your car on Getaround or Turo?
What I care about is the long term true of cost ownership. I don’t care about the short term benefits.
Things to account for that I can think of:
- taxes you pay on revenues from Turo / Getaround
- Mileage your car takes (which means you can sell it for less and you need to pay for maintenance)
- Fees these services take (~40%)
- Looks like the main factor for car depreciation is time and not mileage (which is in favor of those sharing services).
