That can only be done if you have an infrastructure worldwide with thousands of dealers, Rietzle said, with thousands of service spots. So "There is no airport where we can't provide you with a car."
Ford Motor Company has the best prerequisites of all car companies in the world for that, Rietzle claimed. "Why? Because it has not only the biggest car financing company with Ford Credit, but also because it has Hertz, the biggest rental car company in the world. So nobody has more service spots and spots where we have cars sitting there, waiting for you."
Rietzle did not give any clue as when this type of program might be launched, but it's obvious there are people at PAG or Ford thinking about how it might work, and that's more of an advance than any other company seems to have taken.
