A sedan of some kind or another, I don't remember which one it was, but it'd be considered a midsized car, and had a v6.

It was a couple years ago. It was a decent car, just that it barely got 20 mpg. I picked it up at Ohare, drove it to Naperville, and then back and forth between the hotel and customer.

Now I do tend to flog my rental cars

I'd also like to confess, that I think it was a Hyundai, not a Kia....
