“This marks an historic occasion as a new tool for dealers, to fight ‘profit compression,’ in their choice for immediate vehicle sale or rental opportunities,” John F. Possumato, CEO and founder of DriveItAway, said in a statement. “For the first time instead of just offering a higher mileage, off-brand, or other non-retail type trade in, or over aged inventory, to other dealers on the wholesale market, Accu-Trade dealers, with one click can push a car to millions of Uber, Lyft and other gig economy drivers, either for purchase, rent or rent-to-own.”

Users of the DriveItAway app will have full transparent information on all used vehicles for sale or rent, right down to the additions/deductions for specific attributes, such as mileage, color, nicks and dents, etc. Unlike non-gig economy drivers, this clearly defined information doesn’t necessarily detract from a sale, as these vehicles are at least in part, purchased or rented for their income producing attributes.
