Tie between a Dodge Durango and Toyota Corrolla, not sure what model year they were, my guess would be 2014-2017 somewhere around there. They handled like a baby deer.

Had a 3 cyl auto Geo Metro for a month when we relocated to Houston. Very scary when merging.

Best was a Jag from Budget for a week in Boston and Marthas Vinyard. Second best was a beetle convertable in Vegas for a week. Was a free upgrade from a compact reservation.

I try to ask for something low mileage, which at least gives you a chance.

Worst was definitely a Nissan Versa that i had to drive from san juan to ponce PR. It felt so unstable at highway speeds. Terrible car to drive

Best is subjective. I had the most fun in Ferrari 458 Italia in Las Vegas

Years ago, I was getting my Honda serviced and the dealership had a Enterprise rental on site and they gave me a loaner. It was a PT Cruiser. I win.
I would agree, you probably win. Of course, there was a Geo Metro I got once. It would have gone faster if I had p

Maybe. How about a Geo Metro - Fred Flintstone could have made it go faster. Made a Smart Car look like a limo.

Nissan Versa. I usually rent a Charger or Fusion for my business trips because they're both awesome as far as rental cars go, but when I went to Dallas about 4 months ago, they didnt have those cars and they stuck me with a Versa. The car is literally tuberculosis on wheels, the engine/transmission are lethargic and it handles like a shopping cart. Merging on the freeway was a task for the car. Ended up just riding with a coworker most of the time because I hated driving the Versa lol.

2008 Nissan Versa, so slow, seats are uncomfortable, no armrest. At least the glove compartment was massive! *shrugs*

Another vote for the Versa.

Car was so damn gutless that you could floor it from a red light and watch the average MPGs increase. Could barely get out of its own way.

The Nissan Versa is a classic example of "What the f**k were they thinking when they designed this?"
