A&Q about Lotus
Q:
So like every year I ask on here if there is somewhere to rent an Elise. Well this year I am headed to AZ (Phoenix area) to hike the Colorado and do a few other things.
Anyone know where I can rent an Elise?
I am going to start another thread in the OFF TOPIC forum, but any recommendations on what to do out there?
Thanks
Ryan

Hi,
Here's your answer, at the moment................
Scott,
We will be announcing the operator in Phoenix in the next 2 weeks once the cars ground in that area.
I will be sure to let you know as soon as we are ready for the announcement.
Thanks,

Criuse up to Sedona and rent a Jeep and hit the trails. You wont regret it. The Jeep tours charge 65-75+ to be a passenger in the pink or yellow jeeps and that would add up to over $300 to do the same 2 trails in the pink jeeps. This place ( ) rents em for like $125 for like 4 hours, Go do the Broken arrow trails (submarine rock) and 7 pools (secret trails).
Tell em you have been 4wheeling before then drop buz words like Lo range, airing down, engine braking w/ac and driving with 2 feet and say you have been rock "crawling" in your own jeep (not rock "climbing", they will know your trying to blowin smoke up their butt). Then they will be more inclined to "let" you do Broken arrow.
Sedona is a 2-2.5 hour drive from PHX and theres plenty of hiking and natural beauty to soak in. Do the afternoon rentals grab some sandwiches before hand and eat em on the trail. Pull into the broken Arrow trails and park in the big slick rock area near the entrance or criuse up to the Submarine rock area and eat there. Trust me you will be blown away at what that Jeep does and what trails they trust you to drive by yourself.
Be prepared to get dirty looks from the tour guides in the pink jeeps because you are driving the competitions vehicles and your haveing way more fun than their customers schlepin it in the back of their rigs that paid twice as much.

Zen, on your website, in the descrption of the Lotus for rent, it's described as having power leather seats. Were these added, or is this a mistake?
