I was never impressed by the maintenance level of these cars. It once took me three tries to find a car which ran properly (like not revving up to 2000 RPM in neutral at a stop light...) I think what they meant by a "fleet car" is one that has been used by some corporation as a shuttle/delivery/general-purpose car, and NOT your average rental car. I never recommend using rental cars as models to choose which you'd like to own. By the way, the new Camaro Z28 with the High-Output Fuel-Injected 5.0 L is leaving Mustangs in the dust.
