Car Rental History
One of the most significant businesses that have marked the 20th century is car-renting. Car rental agencies primarily serve people who have a car that is temporarily out of reach or out of service or travelers who are out of town or owners of damaged or destroyed vehicles who are awaiting repair or insurance compensation.
In USA this business started in 1916 when Joe Saunders from Nebraska started a car renting business with a Ford Model T he owned, renting the car to local and visiting businessmen. By 1925 Saunders had car rental operations in 21 states. By then, The Chrysler Company ran full-page ads boasting that Saunders had purchased $1 million worth of Chrysler automobiles.
