DriveItAway Inc. announced today that it is partnering with MyDealerOnline to give rideshare drivers a choice in choosing a temporary vehicle to drive, giving them access to hundreds of vehicles in current inventory, as well as wholesale auction vehicles in many locations available through participating dealers.

With the goal of being the most dealer and driver friendly national carsharing service for current and prospective Lyft and Uber drivers, DriveItAway now has over a thousand vehicles available and offered on its driver app in each of two pilot regions, Philadelphia and Miami, and, combined with its free credit repair and remediation program, offers a clear path to ownership to all of its rideshare drivers.

A potential rideshare driver, looking for a vehicle that they might want to drive or rent-to-own, simply has to download the app where both immediately available vehicles and those that would be available “upon request” are displayed.
