I can never win with Avis. This week, my Ford Edge rental shakes like a massage chair going down the highway at 75mph. Heading back to the airport after work to exchange. I think I'm going to ask for an Infiniti M37 upgrade for my troubles.

Yeah, they're all the same. I especially hate the bolded ones. Their cars and customer service are terrible.

I have been having good luck with National -- low mileage cars are easily available -- I had one a few weeks ago with 19 miles on it. It was a Challenger and I completely disregarded break in protocols during the 300 mile I put on it.

You mean you drove lots of highway miles with cruise control active?

We have to rent Avis unfortunately. For the most part, their cars have been good, I typically get a car with less than 3,000 miles and decently equipped. It's the customer service that gets me. Half the time my name isn't on the preferred board when I get there and I have to check in at the desk. Two weeks ago they didn't check in the car I returned AND rented another one to me the following Monday. I call in and the lady said I had two active rentals....uhh hello?

They gave me a Chevy Equinox once with 2miles on the Odometer. I returned it with 250miles. I also floored it out of the lot

. Drive it like you stole it break in style.
