Van Pools Blog

The following post was written by Mark Royer from Moorpark, California. It was originally submitted to our iPhone contest, but it was so enjoyable that we had to share it with our readers.

Before I began vanpooling, I was putting over 20,000 miles a year on my Toyota Corolla. After I began vanpooling, my miles were more than cut in half. That means I can drive my car a lot longer without having to replace it.

But the Toyota dealer is having a tough time of it. They keep sending me notices that I need service, based on my old mileage, and I am nowhere near the odometer reading they assert I am approaching. Also, I really enjoy the fellowship with the other riders in the van. So it is a great deal for everyone but the Toyota dealer.
