I drove an auto as a rental in Austin while a job interview. I liked it and when gas went to 4 bucks, I was driving 60 miles one way commute. I bought my 2006 Aveo slightly used for 9.5K in 2007. I am very happy with the car. It's gotten me back and forth to Iowa several times and now my insane but regualar weekend commute of 600 miles.

Rentals are a good way to exposed to new cars. I drove a nisson something or another in April on a trip to Vermont. I really did not like the car handled corrections from wind gusts.
