I strictly use Enterprise. They may be more expensive, but every experience I’ve had with them have been very pleasant. last time I only drove for like 10 miles, didn’t put gas in it. Computer said I needed to fill it up, but the gauge still read full so the guy just waved the gas charge. as long as they don’t start go…

I actually ate at one of those for lunch - fantastic Hibachi/Sushi place here in town. $20, all you can eat in two hours. But it is clearly posted on the front door, at the “wait here to be seated” podium, and in big bold letters on the menu itself that there is a two-hour time limit. Fair enough, and I can put a good…

Obviously, they are trying to use the same definition of “unlimited” as most cell service companies use for data. <rolleyes> Except the cell phone companies are actually smart enough to put it in writing that “unlimited” does not actually mean unlimited. Of course, the *contract* does, in fact, say “unlimited miles*,…

Hertz is doing something stupid and having it blow up on social media is as predictable as a rainy day in Seattle 

“Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from swiftly fleeing their accidental crashes.”

“Why would the best, most effective value proposition to distribute vehicles to customers not be your first choice?” Devlin asked Auto News. “And why would you reject an existing distribution and sales system that already exists?”

My dad went with a Silverado instead of a Tahoe back in 2016 solely because the pickup had all kinds of money on the hood that the SUV didn’t. I’m curious if that’s a consistent thing that still exists, or varies seasonally. 

I guess the rental perk is they assume these well-off people fly a lot. Me, if I had something as comfy as a Navigator to drive I’d never want to fly. Hell, I never want to fly now as it is. 

Ooof, those wheels on the LWB are ugleee. 

I was impressed with a Malibu as a rental once too. Then a month later, I ended up with a Camry. Night and day. The fabric on the seats didn’t feel like Blair rejects. I could push on the touch screen and not feel it move at ALL. Fuel economy was better, ride better etc.

TIL that I am paid less than some North Koreans.

It really shows how Ford has confidence in the reliability of its products if they include, as a perk, a membership to a rental car company.

‘’ There’s also other little perks like free car washes at the dealer, a premium maintenance plan for four years or 50,000 miles and a President’s Club membership with Avis ‘’.

Maybe it’s time we started treating car thieves like real criminals, rather than giving them a slap on the wrist.  Stealing anyone’s car is going to cause that person a lot of problems, and when they are stealing so many of a particular car that insurance companies are dropping that make of car it causes problems for…

I’ve always loved the looks of the VW CC. And the VR6 engine is a bonus. If I were in the market for a 10 year German sedan; I could see my self going for it.

I am fine with flood cars being sold, less so salt water flood cars, but title cleaning should 100% be illegal.

They might not care about the cars, but they care about money... it’s way cheaper to have cars for sale than to have all of your cars scrapped, have nothing to sell while waiting for new cars, and also go through all the time and paperwork for the insurance company...

That’s mostly because a couple of generations ago, we downsized our rail infrastructure to a staggering degree rather than continuing to grow it alongside our population. Drive through middle America and every small town has an abandoned passenger railway station. Many mid-sized and larger cities have buried streetcar…

Are you suggesting there should be LESS safety regulation for cars because motorcycles, cyclists, and pedestrians exist?

It’s probably also automakers lobbying to squash any changes to allow minicars because they want to keep charging more and more for their cartoonishly large vehicles, safety be damned.

None of this makes any sense to me. I guess the complaint is that the fridge you get with your car (a ridiculous thought to begin with frankly...) isn’t good enough. But just.. buy a real one and not these plastic fantastic useless ones.
