HOURCAR

Toyota announced yesterday that it would temporarily suspend the manufacture and sale of 8 models of its cars. This decision does not include any of the vehicle models in HOURCAR’s fleet, but we are following the story and will take any necessary steps to ensure the safety of our fleet.

In the past, we’ve commented on Toyota’s recall of floor mats.

HOURCAR was recently written up in the Star Tribune. The article profiled a member who uses HOURCAR a couple times a month and otherwise lives without a car. This is the case for the majority of our members; many others have one car for two people and use us as an occasional second vehicle.

And, yes, we’re well on our way to 1000 members. Join us today and be part of the movement!

HOURCAR has a new location for the #16 car in the North Loop. Thanks to Franklin Bank, we have a parking spot in their lot. It’s at the corner of Washington and Sixth, so we hope it’s a bit closer to some of the activity in the area. It’s closer to the new Northstar Commuter Rail station, too, which opens in November!

So hey there, look at this. HOURCAR has a new website. This is cool all on it’s own, but it’s also much more useful than our old website. You can see where our cars are and the Frequently Asked Questions will answer most of yours. Don’t you like it? We sure do.

We’ll migrate our blog over here in the near future. For now, you can find it all at HOURCAR.blogspot.com
