You don't even need to steal the car. You could simply take the the most valuable parts. Some parts can be taken without the owner knowing. Example: air bags. If you rented your car out, you would never know that your air bag was missing until you actually needed it.

Wouldn't that hold true for regular rental cars too? I have never heard of this being a problem with rentals.

Ugh, that's a shitty attitude. I think one of the good things about HN is that people here usually give each other the benefit of the doubt and assume good intentions. Lobbing accusations of bias around are a good way to kill that friendly tone. Unless you've got actual proof of bias perhaps you could keep your accusations to yourself next time?

I think it is a fair question. Brand new account, only posting in this one thread, with pretty flimsy criticisms, and a screen name specifically indicating a negative bias. I did look into it before posting.

I think it is also pretty shitty to use throwaway accounts without disclosure and a reason.
