Funny as I was driving my rental car into Burbank today I was thinking about this.
My theory of the moment is that if you were buying a nicer car it would be fine. Econobox, forget it. Econoboxes get rented, mostly I suspect, by younger people that kick the crap out of them. A nicer car that would more likely only be rented by more responsible adults would probably be okay. Witness the Civic I had some 3 years ago that I picked out because the paint was trashed. I proceeded to royally thrash it for a week. Great car, I really liked it. Today I have a Malibu that seems to be a decent car but I have no desire to go out and really flog it. My Aunt has a Volvo she bought from a rental agency, she's had terrific luck with it. -Curt Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 11:58:45 -0400 From: Allan Streib <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [MBZ] OT: would you buy a rental car? To: mercedes@okiebenz.com Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Couple of people I know have been happy with cars they bought from Enterprise. I've also heard horror stories about the things people do to rental cars. Any opinions?
