Um welcome to the world of rental..

DO you really have any idea what most ( I said MOST) not all do with a Rental car..?

Cmon........

(1) email sent from that location across their internal email network and this guy gets busted. Used to do this to people driving our rental cars at the drags. Just called in the plate and then corp. contacted rental origination location for a customer intervention. People don't realize it but if a rental car is damaged they are supposed to file a report with your insurance company for ANY instance regarding damage to the vehicle unless you have the damage waiver. Which only helps you the customer because even under the damage waiver the manager of that location eats the damage in his bonus structure. It falls under lot damage (hail, vandalism, ect.) Total BS and part of reason I quit that racket!

Insurance will not cover it. Insurance doesn't even pay for mechanical breakdown on your own car. This was damage caused by an abusive
imature driver.

Maybe they shouldn't build these "Muscle Cars" so cheap. A Camaro that can't do a donut w/o breaking something is not a Camaro.

SVT_SRT · 11-13-2009, 07:00 PM

Back in the old days when Hertz had rent a racer w/ the 289 cobra jet, people would rent them and swap out their engines w/ it and the rental company wouldn't notice until the vehicle had scheduled maintenance.

Vinnysrt8 · 11-13-2009, 07:01 PM

Well since the steering is good I'm gonna do more donuts jk

Curious.. You obviously don't like the Camaro, yet you are spending a Friday Night on the Camaro Forum..... So I take it you need a hobby?
