Silvercar<br />
A new paradigm for<br />
vehicle rental<br />
By Jeff Dorgay<br />
L<br />
et’s face it, one of <strong>the</strong> biggest complaints with business and<br />
pleasure travel is renting an automobile once you arrive at your<br />
destination. We can’t all be James Bond and have a silver Aston<br />
Martin and a perfect martini waiting for us at <strong>the</strong> gate. But you<br />
can have a sparkling clean silver Audi A4 (complete with S-line<br />
package) waiting for you, sans martini, at <strong>the</strong> Chicago, Denver,<br />
New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Austin<br />
airports.<br />
The Silvercar experience is beyond wonderful. Getting out of Chicago’s O’Hare<br />
International from <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r car rental carriers is usually 60–90 minutes minimum,<br />
sometimes longer if you aren’t a premier rental customer. Silvercar has an app for<br />
your smartphone to manage your reservation, and it allows you to ping one of <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
representatives <strong>the</strong> minute your plane hits <strong>the</strong> ground. By <strong>the</strong> time you get through<br />
baggage claim, a friendly Silvercar person is <strong>the</strong>re to hand your Audi to you.<br />
