Used the car today. All good but have to get used to 3 and D on the stick. Labels not idiot-proof enough for this idiot.

HOURCAR The time for an HOUR-Truck is not
yet up. We’ve raised $1795 so far in
this campaign: only $3215 left to go! Help us raise the capital
today (well, before 8 a.m. tomorrow), when every dollar you generously pledge is generously matched. (And while you're at it, hit up Craigslist to find that new apartment, bureau, desk ...or chandelier, because HOURCAR will have you
covered for the move.)

Contribute to the HOURCAR Truck Fund and when we raise $5,000 we'll add a pickup truck to the HOURCAR fleet.

Not so generously matched now that almost $10 million has been given. With that number, the match is 5%. And as it grows overnight (which, don't get me wrong, it's a good thing), the match will get smaller and smaller.

Wow, I'm glad so much was given. And, yes, I guess the match won't be huge.

HOURCAR HOUR-Truck! The time is NOW. If
you donate towards an HOURCAR truck today, your dollars will be matched! Click
the link and pledge, and we’ll get closer to a pick-up in the HOURCAR fleet.
(It’s never to early to think about mulch hauling next
spring.)

HOURCAR Congrats on the Northstar Line! Now let's stop dragging our feet and build the Central Corridor. (Did you know HOURCAR's North Loop car is just a few steps from the new Target Field station on the Northstar and Hiawatha Lines at 6th and Washington? A good option if you take the train in and sometimes need a car during the day.)

It took nearly 13 years, $320 million and a few political derailments, but the Northstar commuter rail line made its initial run this morning, moving full speed ahead out of Big Lake at 5 a

I see the new train nearly every day since the line turns around in Northeast, near where I work. I get a thrill each time -- just like living in a real city!

I was hoping the last contest was going to be like the Saint Paul carnival medallion but either my question was too easy or our members are too smart, or both. I had a couple more questions all lined up. Next time we'll have to get even more abstract …

Make it as difficult as you want, but do something more interesting, like maybe a free tour of the hourcar head quarters and a day with a hour car, come on I don't want you guys to give away the store, I love and brag about my membership to hourcar, it calms me just to be in one, that is worth way more then $5 ya know what i mean? I showed it off too when it was at the fair, and all of the sudden I was swamped with more people who wanted to know more!

HOURCAR HOURCAR is going to pick up a new car! A $5 driving credit to the first person who successfully guesses the neighborhood in to which it is going based on the following clues. First one: You'll find its namesake on the Main Line. Guess away!

Congrats Alex, and now I don't have to look up any more slightly less obscure clues. We'll have another contest soon, since have another new car soon! And by the way, everyone hates the Yankees (especially us Red Sox fans). Go Phillies!

HOURCAR Tweets from a transport conference in Vancouver (which HOURCAR is attending after a car sharing meeting). The best line so far: "we need transit to have the frequencies of elevators" as it does on some train lines here. We'll look at bring such an "unconference" to the Cities.

Twitter is without a doubt the best way to share and discover what is happening right now.

This is a great concept, I have often wondered why we just don't get rid of schedules on transit lines all together and run buses and light rail here every 10, 15 or 20 minutes instead of linking tranit to spacific times on shedules that take up time and money to print out for the riding public. Think of how much we could save and put use to extra green transports as well as simplifying the proccess. After all, elevators don't have schedules now do they?

HOURCAR Car 16 is moving! It'll still be in the North Loop, but will now be located at 6th and Washington in the parking lot of Franklin Bank. We hope that it is closer to more area residents, and to the new light rail station at Target Field. It's right on the #14 bus, too.
