Re: Strictly for the ladies....
A very good friend, albeit female, asked me why would single gals stick to married men.
I told her the various reasons.
(1) Some have no faith in ownership - they think buying a new car does not mean low risks of lemon compared to sharing a rented car. What matters is - which car gives more happiness and enjoyment?
(2) Some prefer short term enjoyment, hence ownership does not matter - they could not see a long term relationship working out for them, so live for the moment. Whatever good comes, take. Enjoy first.
(3) Some say a driven car more experienced. No need to run in. No need to worry when to scrap too. Liability is on the car, not driver.
(4) Some prefer that part-time basis. The rental car will never bug you whole day. But when the driver snaps her fingers, he likely will rush to her. Best of both worlds.
