A. I fixed your pics, since I wanted to see them. The link in my sig will help in the future.

B. You will need the fob for resetting the TPMS when the tires are rotated. It is in the Owners Manual, also a link in my sig.

C. If you start using the remote start and for some reason it goes away, you will miss it. It's one of those things you don't NEED until you don't have it anymore.

D. Save the fob programmer box.

Welcome to he site. My 10 was a rental ut of Ketucky. It 8040 miles when I drove it. As fo options, it is a LT with running boards, roof rack,metallic paint, OnStar/XM radio and the carpet insert over the spare tire. It has been good, I now hae 52,000 miles and the only thing done besides two tires and oil changes are the recalls for key/lock and steering motor. My wif's LS was probably a rental also. The 93 Corolla that I traded in on mine had 186,000 plus miles and was also a rntal.

My daughter bought a '13 Verano last year that was a rental. It was like a brand new car and has performed like one. I was initially a little leery of buying a rental, but I came to the conclusion that the likelihood of having had proper maintenance outweighed the possibility that it was abused.
