So true, my 2010 Mustang V6 Vert began life as a rental. I think of her as a rescue horse lol! My wife found her on Cars.com when a 2007 vert I was going to look at was sold or so the salesman told me. She had 20,572 miles on her when I got her and she currently has 45,200. The only problem so far was a blend door actuator went bad and started making an annoying clicking sound every time I started her up. It's a common problem with the S-197 Mustang. Anyway its no big deal to replace and the actuator is like 25 bucks from dealership. She has a beautiful factory grabber blue paint and I plan on keeping her until the wheels fall off. Years ago rental cars were a real gamble if you bought one but today's modern cars don't seem to suffer from fleet use.
