Rxed: Mustang convertible

This was my first time renting having signed up as Preferred, so we had to go see the office as they needed to sight my drivers licence etc. The woman working there was lovely, she said that they try to upgrade their Preferred members "every now and then" and let's see what they could find as a "welcome to Avis".

We were driving to Key West so first she offered a Jeep Wrangler, though I figured that wouldn't be particularly comfortable for longish drives (we did 550miles in 4 days) so asked if they had any other convertibles and got a Mustang instead. Worked for me, as I'd wanted a convertible anyway but they were double the cost of the fullsize I booked.
