This thing really sucks.  Every passenger has their own little cubicle to sit in, like an egg carton.  The windows are like viewing slits on an old tank.  The acceleration is dismal, steering is really twitchy and I am clueless on how big the fuel tank is.

It's a loaner, took my car in for servicing then had to take the truck in yesterday for repair and my wife needed her car.  Fun part is....I need to turn it in tomorrow, both the truck and car will be ready to pick up.

I rented one of those Dodge things earlier this year. The handling sucks and it rides like a pickup. Basically it's pickup made into a mini-wagon. No wonder Toyota is whupping ass on Detroit.

My truck is ready to be picked up, I can get rid of this thing now.  I can't do anything bad to it, I have to give it back....the dealership is paying for the rental.  The rental place does have a Jeep Liberty on the lot...my wife and I may try to rent that one for a weekend since that's in her list of new vehicles to look at.

The handling on this thing is almost non-existant.  The thing understeers like the front tires are greased and oversteers like a BMW 5 series.

That thing has possibilities.

Drop it and put on body kit. Carbon fiber hood and spoiler.
Take out back seat to make room for subs and amps. Flat screen fold out in the rear hatch.
Turbo with intercooler, heathers, high flo cat and exhaust, reflash cpu
sport suspension, 4 piston caliper brakes. 19" rims color matched to body. larger rotors.
Tint windows
lcd screens in the visor, dvd/cd/sattelite radio.

You are good to go.

Why don't you put lipstick on a pig while you're at it? Same thing as you described above. A pile of junk is a pile of junk no matter how much glitter and spray paint you coat it with.

I rented a dodge caliber a couple months ago.  It was hands down, the WORST rental I have ever had.  It was uncomfortable, handled like crap, engine response was dismal, and you cant see anything.... the whole thing is a rolling blind spot.

It is unreal they actually made this vehicle.
