FAQ
Short answers before you apply.
Is this a peer-to-peer or weekend tourist rental?
No. Drive 417 is a weekly car rental for rideshare and delivery drivers in the Springfield area.
What about other gig apps?
Built for rideshare and delivery drivers. Other gig work is reviewed on a case by case basis. You may use the car with any major delivery or rideshare app, subject to that app's own driver, vehicle and insurance rules. We cannot promise any app will accept you or the car.
Where do I pick up the car?
Public handover in the Springfield area, not a house call. Friday is the cadence.
Are miles really unlimited?
Unlimited gig miles, inside the local service area (about 25 miles of the Springfield area). Outside that ring needs our written yes first.
Can someone else drive too?
No. Identified driver only: you are the sole driver. Unauthorized drivers are a deal-breaker.
How does payment work?
Weekly rent, due every Friday while the car is out. First week before keys. If you qualify, we send our business payment instructions in writing.
What do I cover besides weekly rent?
We handle scheduled oil changes. Fuel, tickets, and tolls are yours. Every car is insured before handover. Renters must also carry their own personal auto insurance and show proof before handover. Coverage details are in the lease.
How do you screen?
Gig history, age, a valid US license held at least 1 year, your driving record (with your signed consent), the sole-driver rule, and local fit. A DUI, reckless driving, or a license suspension in the last 3 years means we can't approve the rental.
