I have yet to use my car. It has also been relatively pleasant weather. The moment it starts to rain im going to have to figure something out. Rainproof gear is probably going to be the first priority.
Anyhow, I rented a Zipcar to pick some people up from the airport and their plane was delayed. I couldnt cancel the reservation or I would have been charged, and stupid me didnt realize I had only booked it for 2.5 hours, so I was able to extend it 1/2 an hour for free (i guess the lesson is always book hour increments, even if you wont use them).
The car was out of gas again, and had a few chips in the windshield. I wish they would outline what they will or will not charge you for, beacause when I picked up the car it was pitch black and I couldnt see anything until I got to the gas station.
I made it with three minutes to spare, the same as last time, but at least this time there was a parking space.
The idea of a bio-diesel car is sounding more and more appealing.....

sadly bio-diesel takes a lot of agricultural land out of food production.... good luck
Both SFO and OAK have good BART connections. Why not save time and $ and let meet your airport friends at Rockridge BART? It's an easy walk to your house from there, or if you're going farther afield you could get a zip car from the station.
the BART comment above is mine. I wasn't trying to be anonymous, just didn't click the right box.
If it were a friend I would do this, but I take a couple to and from the airport as a side job, sometimes.
