You got a Heep too? I couldn't find the thread under your profile...Or do you mean that you rented a car? I am confused...

When my dad worked for Dollar Rent a Car, we got to use a Jeep Grand Cherokee for a while. I liked it, but it was no good for whee....I mean, it was no good for....gas mileage?

The heep is rental, and a POS... its brand new, 2006 with 1000 miles...but I really cant stand it..no power, no mileage, horrible blind spots...

Not a full one, just from the externally visible stuff they were at 5K. They have to figure what to do with the lighting wiring harness, it was shreaded. The guy thinks it needs a whole new harness, and thats a crap load of labor... but not my problem.

Looks like the damage is just above $9,000, only halfway to the total threashold. But they havent checked the frame yet, and toyota frames are not fixable, so that would probally total it.

One nice thing is I am returning the POS Grand Chokeee... Toyota rents rigs, so I am getting a brand new Rav4, until their runner is ready. Not that it matters, but they are super cheap compared to a normal rental place.
