I've never purchased the additional rental car insurance.
Last time I was at Hertz at TIA two of the 5 or 6 Hertz Mustangs were parked ON THE CURB by the Hertz attendants, one had a broken bumper from it, the other I just have to imagine was scratched to hell and back. Corvette ZHwhatevers were the same way, front bumper covers resting on the center curbs.

If you return a car late at night, Hertz won't even bother walking out an inspecting. I've actually never had hertz do anything except check the mileage and make sure there was no large, obvious damage. Even with the prestige/specialty cars I've rented before... (never rented one of their special edition mustangs or vettes though.)

The mustang's are limited to 75 miles per day (for free, each additional mile costs you), but i think they'd be fun at brooksville
