The best part about a rented 'Trep is that you get to try all those stupid things you've always wanted to but knew better.

Time for some E-brake slides, a few good neutral drops, and perhaps enough time for an old fashioned reverse to drive wheel spin festival!!!

I love rentals, what better way is there to relieve stress?

Luckly Luckly man a good wife is hard to find. My wife is great to but brain dead about cars. The only question i get. Honey what is the red light next to the gas gauge. Or when i go over 85mph the car some times acts funny honey

. Have fun with your rental.

Hey Si,

It goes to show you man that sometimes ALL that shopping experience does come in handy, at times.
Have fun with the Trep. Don't let her drive, especially around those Cavaliers.

Good trip, man. Don't kill yourself! Safe and FUN driving.

If she really loved you, she would have picked up an ES.

I'd say an R/T, but I doubt you'd find those for rentals...

Since I have this SE, I am going to persuade wife to race my Concorde, place youre bets folks, stock SE against a slightly mod`ed `corde.. Thing is, what do I drive? The corde or the SE? I reckon let wife have the SE, I know how to drive my baby for the best results..

It actually doesnt feel much faster than my corde..?!?!?! Am I on LHSers crack again?

Si,
It doesn't matter man. With her racing record, she'll lose either way. 15 minutes before race time, pull out the mulit-page flyers from the newspaper and let her look at what's on sale. Her mind will be spinning faster than the tires on a '70 Super Bee. She'll then get confused and when its time to floor it, her foot will hit the brake pedal again. HaHa!

Best rental: 2001 300M, this is the car that convinced me to go car shopping. Unfortunatly my wallet went shopping with me and I realised I couldn't afford the car and bought the Trep instead My company arranges all my rentals directly so I usually end up with a Lumina or Taurus, I nearly wet myself with excitement when they dropped the 300M off.

Worst rental: The Grand Marquis we just rented in Ohio. Piece of junk didn't even have a CD player, the ford focus parked next to it had a CD but not the Marquis. I was on a "guy's weekend" with my buddy
(roller coasters, beer, strip bars) and he was in charge of the car rental, to say the least he heard my bitching the whole weekend. Couldn't even disable traction control for a good wheelwell full of smoke picture. What an overpriced mistake that car was.

To answer youre question on what ROFL means. It means rolling on the floor laughing. As for the rentals yeah that grand maruquis is one piece of crap i mean what do you expect its a piece of crap. But one thing this car can do, the one i had didnt have traction control i put it on nuetral and drive this car can do good peel outs.

well si enjoy the intrepid while you have and rember burn rubber baby burn rubber
