No doubt, I've been abusing rentals almost on a daily basis for about 7 years now. But that's not what I'm referring to. The car itself just seemed like a cheap piece of crap. The only reason I didn't return it for something else was the convenience of the being able to haul toolboxes and crap in the back. I think it had like 120 miles on it when I rented it and I gave it back with almost 7000.
I also got upgraded to an Explorer a couple months ago. Man that thing was nice, definitely not the pieces of crap they made ten years ago. I'm guessing it cost alot more money though.
