Why it's this cheap
The rental company needs the van in New York and would otherwise pay a driver or a truck to move it, so they rent it for $1 a day.
Why it's a steal
GOOD COMPARISONSame van at the listing's extra-day rate ($125 × 14) plus the same fees, insurance and fuel; excludes any one-way drop fee, so the real normal price is likely higher. A normal rental would let you choose dates and return location; this one must be picked up Nov 1–14 and delivered to New York within 14 days.
