Should You Buy A Rental Car?

article image placeholderUploaded by @MsColes77
But after this experience, it kind of changed my mind about rental cars being for purchase, because one thing I've learned about rental cars is that they take excellent care of those cars because they're used for business. So if you look at Carfax records on rental cars that are for sale, you'll notice that while they were used as rentals, that they were routinely serviced. That one vehicle I looked at that I really liked, it had been routinely maintenanced

You're kind of taking a chance, a risk. But I have used rental cars before that have broke down. I had to check back. So it's the same thing as if you get a car off the parking lot. But I think that a parking lot, they do service, both of them service their vehicles. I would actually not depend on just knowing that they service it. I would take it somewhere to get it checked out

You. Hi. The only experience I have with purchasing a rental car is my son bought a car from enterprise after his car had gotten totaled back in, like, 2018. And so from what I remember, the car didn't give him any problems until he was just ready to get rid of it. And he traded it in to buy a Honda that was a few years newer, both for used cars. But as far as I remember, the sentra was fine

So if something does get messed up, they're not really on the hook for fixing it, and they're not on the hook for any maintenance, so they're not really concerned about taking care of it as they would a car that they own. And so that is true. I know the rental companies do their maintenance to take care of a vehicle, but again, you have different people driving. And like I said, folks will run over curbs and everything and they don't care

Hey, sis. Thank you so much for your response. Yes. As I was telling Kitha, the rental car that I had, the rental vehicle that I had before I bought my new car this week, it was a 2021 Nissan rogue sport. And it was a very nice vehicle. Very nice
