Big thanks to Jith Paul and Gillian Walker for taking time to do the math! I must admit that Jith and I left the meeting ready to take a close look at what VrtuCar has to offer. But I've also heard from people who use VrtuCar and fall into the trap of using it too often for too short trips. These short trips end up costing quite a bit on a monthly basis so watch out. Thanks for listening!
