There was a time I thought Toyotas were beautiful cars and American cars were crap. Then some years later I had two occasions to rent a car. The first time I got a Toyota. Absolute crap. The transmission couldn't stay in the same gear with even slight inclines. The next time I rented a Chevy Malibu. An absolute dream. Loved that car. I learned a lesson to not let my prejudices prevent me from taking another look.

A sample of two very short term rentals is an awful way to judge cars on long term traits like reliability.
