i am seriously thinking about buying a used car from hertz.
it is a 2016 with 20k miles.
it has been in service for 9 months.
there are plenty of hertz horror stories on the web.
they usually break into two sections: the car stinks/hertz stinks.
hertz offers a 3-day "test drive" so you can bring the vehicle to your mechanic.
i was going to bring it to the dealership which also sells this brand/car and get an opinion from a friend's buddy who is a mechanic at the dealership.
the vin number already checks out and the car has never had an accident if you believe carfacts. the mechanic will obviously look for any damage the hertz might have fixed internally.
the hertz stinks complaints is usually about hertz financing.
if i did purchase, i would pay cash.
all rental vehicles have liens so that is an administrative hurdle i need to deal with.
ugh ;-(
buying a used car is a drag.
ymmv
be well.
