Uber Carshare vs Goget... other than pricing, are there any reasons whether I should avoid/prefer one over the other?

I’ve used GoGet & flexicar and had no major issues with either. GoGet is essential run/ owned by Hurtz.

I’m familiar with the character. I’ve seen a bit of clone wars, but basically nothing of rebels. And I’m a huge fan of Rosario Dawson… but I don’t understand why she sounds so… flat? Is that the word? To me Ahsoko was anything BUT. She was bright, inquisitive and driven. And the clips I’ve seen of rebels she was a touch more reserved and self confident, but this version of her she sounds like she’s totally over everything and everyone.

I don’t think it’s Rosario’s fault, I just don’t like the direction this is going.

Rebels was meh at the start, but got pretty dang good. Clone wars is a must watch for SW fans.

Maybe they're taking a 'mature and dejected' Ahsoka approach in this?

Zoning out with my jeans halfway up my thighs,
Sitting on the couch, waiting for the sunrise.
Gonna leave the house, these walls I despise,
Though I'm loathe to leave, I must break these ties.

I've been in good company, while all by myself,
I should break these walls, I should reach out,
But I don't see the point, I'm full of self-doubt.
I know I'll feel better,
If I accept this offer.
But they could do better,
What do I have to offer?
Am I really so human to be around others?
Can I be carefree, can I not be a bother?
Ignore that aversion!
Maybe I'm cool in person...
There's only one way to know:
I have to get up and go.
