Mercedes Bent
Ever wonder about taking that extra insurance on a rental car when offered? Usually the sales guy says that everything is covered - I mean everything. Whatever happens to the car, you just walk away from it. So you get to thinking, "Yeah, I could really beat on this thing and have no worries........"

Such an opportunity came up for my friend. He was visiting from Colorado and happened to be offered an Mercedes SUV because they did not have the car he reserved. So he snatched it up with the optional insurance. Well, what do you do with a fully covered rental SUV? You beat on it of course. And when all was said and done with the car was toast. Mud, torn undercarriage, the works.....

Yeah, that's right. Torn undercarriage. But with the insurance you do indeed walk away.
