In the '80s, too. Back around '85, somebody sideswiped my econobox and the insurance company sent me over to Budget (I think) for a subcompact rental. I showed up at the appointed time and they didn't have any subcompacts on the lot. But they were obligated to give me _something,_ so I got a Mustant GT (5.0 liter V8 for a week, no extra charge. It didn't handle for shit, but it sure could go in a straight line.
