After wrecking my Acura, I was issued a Mazda 6 to drive while the insurance company either [1] fixed my RSX (not likely), or [2] totaled it and sent me some cash money (what actually happened). A big Propeller Skies shout out to Hertz for being very accommodating.

The Mazda 6 handled fine and had a decent amount of power. However, I have a few complaints. I was extremely annoyed by the dipshit serpentine shift gate. What the fuck happened to going through P, R, N, and D in a straight line? Apparently some damn focus group told car manufacturers that was too easy, so they responded with unnecessarily convoluted automatic shifters. Second, the sight lines were awful compared to my late Acura and were not helped by the retarded ricer spoiler. Additionally, I had trouble finding a comfortable driving position. Overall, the Mazda 6 was a decent rental car. It was certainly as good as the Focus and light years ahead of the Cobalt. However, I do not recommend purchasing this automobile.
