Hertz now rents cars like Porsche and Tesla

I usually like to take advantage of a Hertz President's Circle Plus Rewards ELITE upgrade, but in this bad economy, I go for the cheapest car to rent. The best way to do this is to go to Expedia, where you can get a quote from all the car rental places in one place.

There are many advantages to going to this link : You can BOOK NOW and pay later, NO FEES for cancellation before pick-up, the TOTAL price INCLUDES taxes and fees. I could see all the rental companies daily rates listed.. 84 Car Types Matched my Search For Economy Or Larger. Dollar Thrifty, was the cheapest then Enterprise and Alamo. All cars include automatic transmission, air conditioning and unlimited mileage. I must point out a tip that you should not expect cars to have air conditioning if you are renting out of the USA, and may even have to rent a stick shift car! So always CHECK if you are not renting in the USA.

We rented a car at Baltimore, MD, AIRPORT (BWI-Baltimore Washington Intl. Thurgood Marshall) from Enterprise.

 

When I returned the car early in the morning at 5 a.m. There was nobody at the Enterprise desk but the National (sister company) person told me to leave the keys in the car. I did this, but did not get a receipt emailed to me . After a few days I sent an email to the manager and explained that I need a receipt for my records and my expense report. I got a reply to go to http://www.enterprise.com> at the bottom of the page you can print receipts but you have to put in your license information.

You can use your Preferred Corporate Loyalty Program At Enterprise and even enter your National Car Benefits Emerald Club ID on the Enterprise website. There is really not much competition in the car rental business and I can understand why only the biggest companies survive. Most cities add on so many taxes that it is not a growth industry. The car companies are lucky that they have not been priced out because Amtrak and other Government run trains are still more expensive than renting a car.

Hertz and Dollar Thrifty Merged last year and now there are fewer car rental companies as there are now only four major Airlines in the USA controlling skies and that means prices go up when there is less competition.
