I haven't used a 6D and would find a clean used 5DIII for a fraction of new. I currently shoot with 1DsIII's and will either upgrade to the 1Dx or 5Ds sometime this year. Renting is not a bad thing to do if you can't afford to purchase, I'd simply never try to shoot anything serious with the 24-105. Perhaps you would check out the Fred Miranda or other photo forum for more information.
Thanks, I'm more of a fast primes guy as well. Maybe I will take this opportunity to play with my 85mm f/1.8 as well. The 35 for wider shots and the 85 for portraits?
