I spent the day yesterday at ford dealerships, seeing what kind of deal i could get on a new focus. One dealer was arguing with me about buying an ex-rental car, because i flat out refused to buy an ex-rental car. I've rented cars and i know how i've driven them, and i know how other people have driven them.  People aren't generally easy on a rental car because it isn't yours, you have for a couple days and give it back, you don't have to repair it, so who cares.

Disagree, I bought an ex daily rental, sure in theory it may have been driven harder than a regular car, it was in no way abused that my father a former Class A mechanic could detect (It only had 14,712 on it with less than nine months of use) and I saved over $9K versus buying the same car brand new (used some of the difference to up the warranty to 7/150K)
