Zip car trial run

I didn’t actually need to use the car, Mary’s was sitting in the driveway, but I wanted to check it out.

Their reservation system was a little odd. I’d rather be able to pick a parking slot then see when it had available times. This made you search for a time, you had to keep putting in new times to find what you wanted. I’m sure I’ll find little tricks soon enough. Finding the car was pretty easy. The car opened right up when I held the card to the wind shield. It was clean and the trunk was plenty big enough for my brompton. The most difficult thing to get used to was holding the key card to the windshield to lock and unlock the car.

I returned the car locked it and road away. I need to see if there is a way to return the car early, I brought it back an hour early.

This will surely solve those few cases when we need or desire two cars.
