The business model is roughly $1/mile not including insurance.

Since uber/lyft are more than that, tech isnt going to help much. Nobody buys vans to share. Maybe a pod designed for autonomous Tesla trucks, but people today do not own what will fit in one pod.

Perhaps permapod. You graduate frome college and are gifted a permapod that will always be available to store or move your stuff. Like in the old days when we stored all our files in email tarballs because the university did not enforce filesize limits on email.

It’s not the same industry, but I wonder if there’s a way to make low volume freight shipping cheaper.

There’s been a few things I almost bought if it weren’t for the fact it costs 10X more to ship than to to purchase the item, often for things I was shocked to hear were too big for parcel shipping. I even had people offering to let me use their docks and the shipping was way to much.
