Or, take a tip from railroads.  You own a passenger pod, which you can
customize with whatever amenities you want.  It has no power train,
but instead relies on a fleet of self driving engines.

You might get a discount if you're willing to link up with other
passenger pods for a longer trip.  Different size engines would be
available for different load requirements and trip lengths.

You don't need to worry about sticky seats, or engine maintenance.
