Choosing a Rental Car

Upon arriving at the Hertz rental garage my husband and I walked toward the two types of vehicles available in the compact class: a red Ford and a white Hyundai.

And my husband—being the accommodating type that he is—deferred the decision-making to me. So he inquired Which car do you prefer—the red one or the white one?

And because the question was too good to be true and that the likelihood that such an opportunity would ever present itself again was less than negligible—I looked him squarely in the eye, and in all seriousness asked Well… Have you driven a Ford lately?

He laughed and said no.

So our decision was made.

Madison Avenue reaped their reward.
