I've used a car sharing service for the last 5 years, so have an idea of why you use them.

A good 90% of the time I used a car share, a Smartcar would've been useless.
I know what you're getting at, but you're missing the crux. Carshare, Uhaul, Budget, Hertz, etc, all already exist for this purpose; Car2Go exists as a quick commuter trip in a Smart Car (again, its run by Daimler to promote the Smartcar). Unless they decide to try and promote the Mercedes Sprinter cargo van, you're not going to Ikea; use one of the numerous existing options that Car2Go isn't trying to compete with now.

Its like complaining about not being able to get Pizza at a fancy French restaurant, when the restaurant exists solely to sell French food, and there are 3 pizza joints around the corner that you could have gone to.
