I-GO Benefits from High Gas Prices

While many residents in the Chicago region — like their kin across the country — are feeling the financial squeeze associated with high gas prices, there is one group of Chicagoans that is faring rather well right now: I-GO members. I-GO car sharing members are immune to gas prices since I-GO pays for gas — as well as insurance and maintenance. The benefits of I-GO seem to be taking hold in the region. I-GO had a record August in which new member enrollment exceeded 100, marking the first time the 3-year-old service has enrolled so many new members in any one-month period.
ABC7’s Roz Varon talks with I-GO CEO Sharon Feigon about high gas prices and future plans for I-GO.
