yeah and then there are taxis, you know, you pay you get transport. there are also buses which are cheaper than taxis, but the crowd can be a little off putting.
there are short lease options as well which although technically not renting is essentially the same but it may be seen more favorably.
for more exotic cars there are these timeshare abilities where multiple ppl pay into it and have a few days a month/year with the car or cars.
