"cheaters_always_prosper" - читать интересную книгу автора (Bucher Brazil)When I returned the car minus a few components, the rental company employees didn't notice. Rental cars are great sources of all sorts of miscellaneous parts that can be used on other cars. Note: It is best to swap tires with a rental car before your own tires are actually balding. Bald tires are obvious, and you run the risk of an inspector noticing the switch. On the other hand, if your tires are well worn but not balding, it will look like normal wear and tear on the rental vehicle. 9 Avoiding Mileage Charges on Rental Cars and Vans Another idea for use with rental cars is to turn off the odometer, which keeps the mileage charges down. This can be done very simply by pulling the fuse for the dashboard. The speedometer and the lighting in the dash won't work, but the radio will not be affected, so you can travel with music and the headlights will still function. The owner's manual for the car will show you where the fuse box is located. In most manuals there is a diagram that will point remove and replace. This method can also be used to keep the recorded mileage down on your own car. For purposes of convenience, I recommend installing a switch on the dashboard fuse that can be turned on and off from the driver's seat. This enables the driver to turn it off so that miles do not continue to register. Note: It is important to keep a mental note of your actual mileage so that you do not miss oil changes and other important maintenance services. 10 Flying First Class for Coach Fare When traveling, I buy coach-class plane tickets but fly first class. This is easy to do, because when the flight attendants announce the boarding of the plane, I wait until the final boarding call. At this time, almost all of the people on the flight are in their seats. When I board the plane, I sit in any open seat that I see in first class. Because I am one of the last people to board, it is very unlikely that I am in someone else's seat since everyone else is already seated. |
