Worst things you've done to a rental!

Just what it says!

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

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)

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.

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!"

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

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.

I am pretty mild, all I have done is race people and drive WAY over the speed limit on the freeway in a car with less than 1000 miles on the engine, not to mention it was a bone stock Chevy Malibu and couldn't handle worth shit.

Hmmm, wonder why most rental places set a minium age of 21-25?
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
