It's a seamless rental experience, and most of my guests really enjoy the personal touches working directly with the owner of the business. I do provide the car, but am very much an makeshift travel agent as well. I make suggestions for restaurants, bars, hotels, travel destinations, etc. I try to be as full-service as possible. There are a lot of repeat customers as a result.
Very interesting thread, thank you for taking the time to write it. I don't think I could ever do it with my personal cars, but if I had a few others I didn't care about, then this would work out good (say a Miata RF for example).

Question for you:
- How do you become a Powerhost? Is it a combination of ratings and how many times you've rented?
- For you, when do you decide it's time to sell?
- Do you use any of these cars, or are they pretty much all for rentals?
