I really can't believe that it is midweek already.
Got to tell you this. My darling wife is in Columbus, Ohio as I post. She arrived there from New York on Monday in the snow and got herself a hirecar. Now Mrs Jezer isn't quite so clued up on American cars though she used to have a Jeep in Texas- a Jeep Liberty.
What they gave her, bearing in mind the weather, was a Jeep Wrangler, soft top and nowhere to hide luggage. She couldn't be bothered to walk back to the far end of the lot and will put it down to experience.
So, how about this for a peeve;
Someone taking advantage of your lack of knowledge to give, or should I say sell, you something you wouldn't otherwise go for.

Buyer beware!
Buyer should also carry a good pair of walking shoes in her carry-on luggage so she can walk to the back of the lot. Learning where the complaint department is never hurt either.
Your poor wife! I hope she raises a ruckus with their home office over this. EVERYONE at those places knows a customer needs a vehicle that will keep their luggage dry. Considering this storm has affected the majority of the US, there's just no excuse.
My S/O and I play a game every once in a while. We'll go look at a new car lot like we're really interested in buying something, then dodge the salesmen. We'll see them coming, and casually walk away. It's fun to see them try to track you down without running after you. Once they finally catch up to us, we'll say nope. Just looking thanks. lol- it sounds mean, but I have been burned by so many car salesmen who care for nothing but their commission, I can't find it in my heart to care if they are annoyed for a little while. I once had a guy try to convince me the used F150 I was looking at was a V-8 while we had the hood open. Apparently since I'm a girl, I'm not supposed to notice the engine is a six cylinder when I'm staring right at it. Pfft. I also wasn't supposed to notice frayed belts, low fluids, and almost flat tires. Putz.
