Larry's Limo is a nearly unheard of national dispatch service for private transportation. It's kind of like Lyft for limos, but "limo" is a misnomer because it's usually not a limo. It's usually a broken down minivan, a full sized van, or some kind of Hyundai. Allegiant uses it to deadhead crews between cities. So they will call you on reserve in SFB and tell you you're going to take a Larry Limo 3.5 hours to PGD (Toyota minivan) then fly a 1 leg flight to FNT, take another Larry Limo to GRR (3 hours in a Hyundai Sonata in a blizzard), overnight, fly a plane to SAV, then another Larry Limo back to SFB (4 hours with crack head in a white Econoline speeding and weaving on the freeway). The drivers aren't vetted, no idea if they are drug tested, properly licensed, insured, or rested. Just some dude who pulls up and says he's there to take you wherever. You'll become very acquainted with this concept on reserve with Allegiant. Oh, and for local transportation they call you a Lyft, but it's some lower tier of Lyft than the general public uses because the cars are always beat up pieces of crap you wouldn't see on your own Lyft, and the drivers usually reek of weed.
