Enterprise Car Sales Enterprise-Car-Sales Enterprise Car Sales: Bad Deal! Redmond, Washington

I purchased a car from them.  Price was about $2500 over the price of comparable vehicles at the time (not even taking into account the very high 30,000 typical miles on their rental fleet).  A year later, I tried to trade it in with the same office, but trade-in value was Way under-bid.  It ended up costing well over $10,000 to own that car for the first year!   Doc fees and over a dozen different 'Taxes' ran multi-thousands of dollars! 

Now, Im trying to sell it, and is totally un-sellable, because it was used as a short term rental!  Diminishes additional thousands of dollars off of the resale value; and is specifically listed in Carfaqs.   I feel absolutely screwed over, especially since the main selling point was that I could trade it in with them if I didnt like it, becuase "they will give me the most money"  >:/.  If the purchase price is 18k, the trade in is 12k. (plus two sets of $5,000 dollar fees that get re-added in).  UGH. 

Buy that 18k used rental car?  The total purchase is going to be 22.5k.  (With trade in at 12k?) Dont do it!     Buy new, or buy Private Party!  If your buying used, then at the VERY least, dont get a rental fleet vehicle!  Theres a reason they sell the car after 1 year, becuase it loses the MOST amount of money after 2 years.

I HIGHLY un-recommend buying a car there, unless you never plan on selling it, and dont mind replacing the transmission prematurely. DO NOT trade in a vehicle there.  DO NOT even bother getting them to buy yours.  horrible business model, disigned to get the most out of people thinking they are getting 'great deals' on rental fleets.
