My dad ran a wrecking yard in Nebraska in the 1930's. I commented one time about a model T seemed to keep running. He said, they never went more than 25,000 miles in a lifetime. You always kept a strip of leather in the toolbox to replace a poured Babbitt bearing when it went out any old time. If you did not have the leather, you could use a piece of your belt or the tongue for a shoe. They turned over all the time. Heavy metal, the did not bend, but the passengers did. They were better than horses, but not by much. |

That insurance option is pretty much pure profit for the rentacar company, Someone needs to hold their feet to the fire. The reality is, it has always been pure profit for them since I never wrecked a rental car. I have brought them back real dirty but all the parts were there. I doubt you ever buy that insurance so it doesn't even affect you. Again you are bitching about something that has no effect on you and is really none of your business. How would you know whether I use rental cars or buy the car company insurance when I do. As a point of fact, I do, to both, so it is part of "my business." |

That is the free market in action. They agreed to the risk in fact they aggressively sell it with all of the "no matter what" language. I just try to get the peace of mind that I paid for. All that sort of behavior does is raise rates for everyone else. The conservative approach. That insurance option is pretty much pure profit for the rentacar company, Someone needs to hold their feet to the fire. The reality is, it has always been pure profit for them since I never wrecked a rental car. I have brought them back real dirty but all the parts were there. I doubt you ever buy that insurance so it doesn't even affect you. Again you are bitching about something that has no effect on you and is really none of your business. How would you know whether I use rental cars or buy the car company insurance when I do. As a point of fact, I do, to both, so it is part of "my business." So the tax payer is subsidizing it. I get it. I will think of you the next time I take my rental SUV "off roading". ... naah If they thought I was just going to be driving on the hard road, why did they rent me a 4WD? Got flood insurance? |
