Default Renting a car

We are on vacation so we rented a car. The only problem is that the car is so nice, we want to keep it. It is a Chrysler 300 fully loaded with leather interiors.

I love driving anything Chrysler, especially the Town and Country. The closest I ever got to having one of those was a Dodge Grand Caravan. I just couldn't see springing for the extra luxury.

I'm not a big fan of Chrysler, but I can relate to wanting to keep the rental car. It's so nice when we get to spoil ourselves once in a while with something we would never have otherwise.

I love getting a rental car when you can pick out what you want. I got a convertible Mustang before when I went to Florida and it was awesome.

Rentals are great! I always get a better car then I normally drive. You can drive it anywhere and not worry about it. You gotta give it back though - rentals are too expensive to keep!

I love rental cars too! It gives you a chance to change it up a little bit and drive something else without the cost of a new vehicle.

I have never had an issue with a rental car before but I swear my one buddy must be cursed. The only time an accident happened for her is when she was in a rental, twice. Same company each time and then they refused to let her drive their cars anymore.

Have you ever bought the insurance pushed by the rental agent? You shouldn't have to. If you have full coverage on your car, and your policy covers you on any car you drive (most do), then you don't need the extra insurance. This is purely another way rental places try to boost their profits.

Just say no!

Default Renting cars

I find that renting a car once in a blue moon is an excellent way for me to find out if this is a car model I would enjoy owning. I have rented cars I really like, and would never have tried them any other way.

Renting a car when on vacation is a perfect excuse to drive something you know you'll never own. I want to feel great when I'm behind the wheel, so I rent a car that makes me feel that way.
