• I'm pretty sure the guys from CarTalk on NPR had a similar shop in Cambridge MA some years back. To hear them talk, it didn't quite work out, at least business-wise.

• US Military Installations have had this same type of service for over 15 years, if not longer. You're able to rent tools, buy parts, and consult on-site staff about problems.

• San Francisco has a similar thing. The Bay Area Motor Club. $10 hourly, $30 daily, and more.

• I do wish it was more widespread, unfortunately it is not likely to be much of a money maker unless the shop retains sponsors....
