New entrants in DriveAway (vehicle driveaway) struggle to find reliable companies and quality advice due to unhelpful, secretive online communities and a fragmented market of operators.

Facebook groups for DriveAway are unhelpful because experienced drivers withhold advice to protect their own income, and there is no centralized, objective resource to compare companies or get reliable starter guidance.
