ive had dealer loaners before, seems to be just what the dealers position on loaners is, whether you get a decent one or a crap one, ive had loaners i wasnt sure about long distance worthyness, and ive had loaners that were nicer than the car i had.

chuck meant the car was in crap condition, aka it was dirty.

i understood that, i guess my point was its all how the dealer views his loaner fleet, if he dont care hes just going to have his guys run a vacuum and call it good...bad customer relations in my opinion,

most dealer loaners ive delt with have been along the lines of average cleaniness for a new car someone uses as a DD

Loaner cars are supposed to be clean but the abuse they go through doesnt make it easy to keep them spotless.
