if I got in a rental and it smelled like smoke I’d ask for another one


I’ve done that on several occasions.

Out west they all smell like pot now.


We rented one in Scottsdale back in May and every day we got in it, it smelled like SEClint was just in it.

Crying to the net vs complaining to rental company total b-move


It’s not the rental car company’s fault. It’s the idiotic customer base. Sixt can’t keep live feed cameras in their cars to make sure retards don’t smoke in them.

I'm more irritated by not being able to find it in a parking lot without hitting the alarm and not being able to open the gas cap.

I use the rental to swap out tires on my truck every year.

1. As a former branch manager of a rental car company, you're a piece of shite. It came out of my income when I have to explain why I'm replacing 4 truck tires on a brand new vehicle.

2. I'm surprised you haven't been caught but wouldn't be surprised if you eventually do. Someone smart is going to catch on.

We had someone who had a Jaguar getting fixed rent a Jaguar, swap the wheels/tires and brought the car back. Didn't find out til a day or so. Ran their credit card for whatever we could get and banned them from renting. That shite ain't cheap. Corporate already takes enough money from the stores, so no reason to flex that you're stealing from businesses.

I've had hundreds of cars returned smelling like drugs or an ashtray. We tell them we will charge them $200 habe them get it fixed before returning. Most of them either have no money in the bank or actually know they tracked in smoke smell and take care of it. But as you said, they don't own and don't care who it affects.

Best story was in my first month working. Guy brought a truck smelling worse than a work truck. He straight up told me "yeah, I figured it was cheaper to smoke in a rental car than a hotel room".

People have ZERO class.
