No no no. Those suck too.
I never get upgraded to anything much nicer… I had a little Mazda G6 once that was ok. One of my best rentals was a Hyundai Sonata maybe seven years ago. I beat that thing hard in Boston rush hour traffic for a few days. Was a quick car with a v6 in it. That was crazy driving.

I won't let a rental co or my insurance put me in a small car.

Got a free upgrade to a challenger that way.

Started when they tried to stick me in a compact.

I sat down, adjusted the seat.
Readjusted.
Got back out and told them nope!

My car was a full size.

They asked me what one i wanted, while i was staring at the challenger...

Him: you want the challenger huh.

Me: maybe...

Him: yeah the insurance has to cover it since its our only full sized car.

Me: hooked.
I loved that thing

Decided i needed something fun afterwards.

Few months later i brought home the project vette.

I am going to try to push for a challenger one of these times. Had a new charger once and loved that car. It was a v6 too.

I used to rent cars every week, so upgrades were standard fare. One of the most memorable was surprisingly a Ford F-150 with the 3.5 Ecoboost. I was blown away by the torque and zero turbo lag of that little V6. I don't want one for the long-term maintenance headaches, but I was impressed with the performance. Every now and then I'd get a nice Caddy and in Germany once I got an Audi Q7 with the 3.7 TDi. Holy mother of God that was a fast SUV. 180 mph on the Autobahn felt like a Sunday drive in that thing.

'20 Muffstain Ecoboost. Was quite surprised by its performance. I tested EVERYTHING, including the track mode with factory line lock with and without launch control. I even tested how easily they swapped ends by powerbraking then doing a donut in front of my shop at home. The driveway is 30' wide at that point and it stayed on the concrete.

What I did to my GMT900 today: Replaced the aspirator fan then started on redoing my grounds to route the 1/0 cable through the RVC sensor. Currently under a rain delay to finish.
