Then I wondered about a roommate situation. How much would one need to charge roommates to allow them to run errands in it, as long as they are not gone for an hour or two, and they plug in when they return.
Calculate your true per mile cost and let them get their own insurance with a promisary note for the deductible but absolute proof of insurance.
