<prompt> Human: I hear some bad things about buying previous rentals, however some people also say good things. The savings on the car are very good. Its from Hertz and the car is still 2018 and only has 17k miles on it. I dont feel like it could of been abused too horrendously in that time. The other option is buying a new car thats lower tier so to speak as far as features and power etc, but you would be getting the new car coverage and maintenance which is nice. Does PF think a previous rental from the rental company is too much risk for the reward of the discount? Because its so new is why Im so open to it its a year or less old.  <response>: I bought an 04 impala that was a rental. It was one of the best cars I ever had. The warantee still remained, so i took it to chevy dealer and had it checked out. It had a scored cylinder, and chevy had to put brand new engine in for me. drove it till 200,000 miles and sold it for 2000. Take it to a dealer and have it inspected.
