Worst things you've done to a rental!DemonZX 12-11-2002, 09:46 AM Just what it says! Cyprus106 12-12-2002, 12:36 AM hehehe, seen jackass: the movie? that had to be the funniest thing EVER. "yea... I hit a dog". OK, driving a rental, first i stick my hand down in the back seat while my friend was driving and pulled out a 24K gold diamond ring. It was worth a few thousand if I remember right. And I honestly tried to track down the previous few renters to see if they'd claim it but nobody ever did. Car money! And in that same car, we thought it would be really fun to do some e-brake slides at 3 in the morning down an empty highway. No, it wasn't smart. Yes, we blew a tire. Yes we burned out the e-brake. Yes we bought a used tire for $10 from a used tire dealer and no the rental people never found out that their precious Saturn had ever been molested. We also rolled foreward the odometer and tried to fry an egg on the valve cover by revving it a whole bunch trying to get it really hot. I wasn't conscious for either of these (which should explain something) so I'm technically not the dumbass. And DONT EVER TRY THE EGG THING. it smells SO BAD. lol TerminalVelocity 12-12-2002, 12:42 AM ask DMC12 :hehe: worst i've done is make love to the car www.humaninprogress.com find the grandam movie Neutrino 12-12-2002, 02:39 AM Rally racing with a friend in AZ.:D SilverLotus340R 12-12-2002, 08:52 PM we rented a durango V8 when our 4runner got hit by a deer and the 4runner is a V4 so my mom and dad weren't used to all the power...and we went grocery shopping with it...and they told me to go get it and bring it up to the curb...well i wasnt used to twice the power of the 4runner either cuz...i kinda..ran through one of thos things you put the grocery carts in and people collect them... yes there was a dent in the side...yes a tire blew when i knocked the structure over and ran over a nail...no the company didnt know we did any of it (replaced the tire with one from a junk yard) swedish 12-12-2002, 10:10 PM i personally have never had to deal with a rental, a friend of mine had his eclipse break down, and the insurance company would only get him a rio (with insurance however), and thought it would be fun to do a drive to reverse manuver at 45mph, needless to say the tranny (or what remained in one piece) hit the pavement, and he didn't pay one thin red penny for it. DemonZX 12-13-2002, 08:46 AM My brother and I decided to do some drifting in a neon. Well it just so happened to have rained that day. And feeling frisky in this little car(my brother was used to his GMC YUKON GT). Frank and I are riding down this two lane road, all of the sudden he rips up the emergency brake and we go flying around this corner! I was like "holy $hit!" Keep in mind I'm like 14. So, he proceeds to do 4 or 5 more. Well, he decides on the way home that he wants to see how many 360's we can pull. So, he gets up to about 45-50 and rips the e-brake and cuts the wheel we get about 2 1/2 to 3 ful turns then gooosh! We are ass backwards in the 4 foot ditch on the side of the road! They had to tow it out, the ass end was all flucked up. All we could say was "damn wet roads!" ;) Cbass 12-13-2002, 11:18 AM Ah that's funny! I've never rented a car before, but I'll be renting a truck to go score an engine in 2 months, so we'll see then ;) spotovi 12-13-2002, 11:43 AM Rolled up to a nice cement wall with a very loaded Lincoln Continental. Then spun the wheels until I filled the general area with enough smoke to satisfy my freak show rental car behavior.

MaximusGTR 12-16-2002, 01:21 AM We took the premium sound system out of a lexus and put the 6x9's in my chevy beretta and replaced them with the berettas stock 15 watt ac delco speakers, did the same thing with the 6.5's... I was rollin after that.:p :D :p :p :D :D :p DemonZX 12-16-2002, 09:47 AM That's screwed up!....i love it!:eek: :cool: :D 94svt5.0 12-16-2002, 07:56 PM Hmmm, wonder why most rental places set a minium age of 21-25? Future reference, Do not buy a used rental car. SilverLotus340R 12-16-2002, 08:47 PM Future reference, Do not buy a used rental car haha never should have even thought about it before this anyway my uncle bought an old (92-96) mustang convertible that was an old rental..he went to park on a hill, proceeded by pulling the e-brake and ended up ripping the e-brake out and the he went to get it repaired and saw the service records .. 1) e-brake replacement 2) e brake replacement looks like someone had fun with that car 94svt5.0 12-16-2002, 09:38 PM haha, typical. MaximusGTR 12-17-2002, 02:38 AM I was like 17 years old at the time and it was a Gs 300 rental for prom, when I was 17 the gs 300 new body style just came out that year so I said I might as well take advantage of the situation:p :p :p :p dbartoschek 12-17-2002, 10:17 PM Originally posted by MaximusGTR We took the premium sound system out of a lexus and put the 6x9's in my chevy beretta and replaced them with the berettas stock 15 watt ac delco speakers, did the same thing with the 6.5's...

MaximusGTR 12-20-2002, 02:13 PM we did it so neat, that they didn't notice, they don't do a 100 point inspection on the car like, Oh lets see how the sound system sounds. we left the tweeters in, I bought some boston acustic tweets and installed those. I'm the only Chevy beretta on earth with a bose frankenstien system:D :hehehe: :hehe: Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
