Normally, I get pretty excited about the thought of a better deal. However, I was pretty bitter last week when the people at the Dollar Rent a Car tried to convince me that a Jeep was a compact car. My guess, and that of other customers in line, is that with the increasing gas prices, car companies are trying to push the gas guzzlers out of the door. So be warned when you go to pick a rental.
I was adamant about not getting the jeep, but still got pushed up to a full size car. Other than that, the experience was acceptable. I got a PT Cruiser, which was new and clean. Checking back in was very easy, and prices were reasonable.
