First, odd the video is not working for you. Here is the text article: http://www.fox23.com/news/news/local/tulsa-group-wants-shuttles-tulsa-okc/nkznd/

Second, "based on Uber" is probably going a bit far. Like Uber, we are applying technology to an older business model in ways that lower costs and make it more feasible for new customers. Like Uber, ticketing will be handled entirely online and via app. Like Uber, we expect to have referral codes for folks to get free rides and to encourage others to try out the service. And like Uber, we expect to attract a customer base that does not use traditional bus/taxi services.

Unlike Uber, the service will be point-to-point because it would take too long to pick up each individual rider. And unlike Uber, we are not connecting bus drivers to customers. We will own/lease the vehicles ourselves.

Happy to answer any other questions. And our FAQ is available here: https://www.facebook.com/notes/motherroad-travel/frequently-asked-questions/935246673174967

If you are a potential customer, please take our 5 minute survey that helps us show investors the level of demand in the market and makes sure we offer times/amenities/locations that are best suited to you: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CustomerDemand2.

Ok...that's what I thought when I first went through the stuff.  When I hear Uber, the mental picture is random drivers in personal cars and that was not what your site was talking about at all.

Will try the link at different place later.

I don’t share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.
