rev:text	I've been using the car2go service for a couple of weeks now so I feel as though i've gotten a good feel for the service. The important thing is to know what it is appropriate for and what it's not appropriate for. The best way to use car2go is for short trips where you know traffic and parking won't be an issue. For me, this means quick drives from the grocery store so I don't have to walk 12 blocks with my heavy bags, and drives to and from downtown mid-day or on the weekend. Otherwise, you'll find yourself paying a lot just to sit in traffic or driving around looking for city parking, and wishing you'd taken a cab instead. I find the weaknesses to be as follows: -GPS is unreliable. When I'm at home it always thinks I'm about 10 blocks north of my house. And when I'm trying to find a car that I've reserved, I can walk five feet and the GPS will suddenly move me three blocks over, which is really annoying. -Finding a car you've reserved can be a pain. Once, it was parked inside of a parkade that was seemingly impossible to access except from the CLOSED office tower it was attached to. Another time, it was allegedly inside of a non-city parkade, but I walked around the lot like an idiot for ages without ever finding it. -If you find a car that has an issue that has gone unreported, you're SOL. For example, I once reserved a car to drive to work. Once I got in the car, I discovered the e-brake was jammed. I had to run around to find another free car and was late for work. I don't really blame people for not reporting problems though - the help line is a long wait and you get charged to sit in the car. -Car availability is touch and go. There always seems to be a handful of them in my neighbourhood, which is good. Downtown, there are a lot during office hours but they seemed to be widely dispersed on evenings and weekends, and NOT in the core. I'm a student who doesn't own a car and relies primarily on public transit. I live about ten minutes from downtown by car/bus. Car2Go is good for little conveniences but I think if you're trying to decide between buying a car and getting car2go, you probably need a car too much to rely on the service. At the end of the day, it should never be your last resort.
