The fastest car in the world is the one you rent with full coverage. - Jeremy Clarkson
@chrisestill8825 4 жыл бұрын
My cousin rented a Pontiac Grand Am with full coverage for 3-4 days. He asked the clerk if he was covered if all he brought back was the steering wheel. Clerk said yes. The car went airborne several times on some back dirt roads with a full load of passengers, a few people had a dance party on the roof and hood, and a case of (cheap) red wine got broken in the trunk (probably from aforementioned airborne activities). The hood and roof were wrinkled and the doors no longer aligned properly. The car was returned successfully, but I don't think they will rent to my cousin ever again.

SuperGoldnut rentals aren't doing well in general though; see ridesharing cutting into their money. They can't afford to lose money on customers as often because they don't have enough normal folks to repay it - that's when the costs really start to suffer since they can't spread it out.

I had the exact same experience with Budget. Lady in front of me was yelling at the manager for not giving her the quality of SUV she felt she deserved. I then commiserated with him about having a rough day while I asked for a small car to get me from Denver to Telluride because our flight had been cancelled. He proceeded to upgrade me to a 4WD FJ Cruiser for the price of a compact car because "there could be snow in the mountains". It was September. I've rented from Budget ever since.

Shit man I could relate, I’ve driven cars with no AC through 110 degree weather, and at that point hot air is just hot air, no matter the speed you’re going, or how much you’re hanging out of window trying to stay cool. NOTHING works, it’s straight up masochistic. So yeah, put quite eloquently!

You don't know heat then. I have driven a car that would over heat in the summer unless you had the heat on high inside. It got extra toasty in there, even with the windows open. The hot outside air was no match for the heated hot air that was inside. Now I have to fix the a/c and windows on the jeep I drive, so all I have is the fan to blow the air into the cabin, except it must be taken the air from the engine because it gets hot if you are not driving.

Yeah because most insurance companies cover rentals, so you're paying twice for the same service you already had and were paying for. The only reason you would get it is if your insurance does not cover it, or you're just to lazy to care for all the insurance paperwork if you did get in an accident.

I remember renting a Ford C-Max to move my stuff to a different city. I took the car to the Nürburgring before giving the car back ( it was 1.5hr from where I moved to ) The car was understeering all over the place, underbody sounded like it scraped at Karussell, and those poor winter tyres started to melt after one lap. I didn't know I wasn't allowed to take a rental car to the Ring until afterwards but they didn't find out. Good times.

Bulk car purchases on a discount and in house or contracted bulk rate service. They can break even on a car within a year IF people are renting cars. Hertz probably has a highest cost fleet of all the agencies which is why they were the first to go under once travel essentially stopped. A bit sad for me as the Hertz family is connected to mine via marriage way back - not that I had any monetary benefit from the company.

@@TorraTech you can't predict those... But you would be negligent in deciding to drive through them. Normal people will wait for a sandstorm to pass or be finished. You should not drive through them in your own car for the reasons he informed.. Also normal people slow down for wind storms that bring tumble weeds flying onto the roadway. As he explained it. He was trying to dodge them like it was a game and couldn't dodge to fast or he'd loose control. That means he was going the speed limit or more. If he was driving slower (cautiously) he could have avoided them with ease.. I don't believe he set out to trash the rental.. But he certainly didn't treat the car as he would his own......He was in a hurry and said to himself "I don't care about this rental. I checked the box" He is the reason that box costs more and more every time and the price of rentals goes up... The damage and insurance costs for the company get pushed off to the consumers that don't drive like an idiot..

Rental car tip: if you book your rental online and when you get to the desk they ask you if you'd like to upgrade, tell them no. 4 times out of 5 when you get down to the garage/lot, they dont have the car you rented on site, so they upgrade you for free. Turned my corolla rental in phoenix into an SS camaro, in chicago same thing econobox turned into a full sized luxury sedan (think it was a Lincoln) , in newark a compact SUV into a Suburban (which honestly was more inconvenient given the parking availability of where we were staying) and like this story, a compact truck into a full sized econoline van when I helped a buddy move a motorcycle across town. The only time I didnt get a free upgrade was when I went to Aruba.
@tmanepic 4 жыл бұрын
Wow, you've gotten lucky. I've rented cars countless times over the years, and the only upgrades I've gotten have been from a subcompact to a compact car. Once I even got a downgrade from a luxury I had booked to a compact SUV. It took me a day of calling to finally find a location that had that class, and when I arrived it turned out to be a Toyota Avalon. However, booking online allows you to compare prices among a ton of different locations, companies, and classes, and sometimes you find significant discounts at one location when they are expecting a surplus of vehicles, so you definitely save money that way.
@TheCobruhAlienat0r 4 жыл бұрын
@@tmanepic Same. When I was younger I always remember my mom getting an upgrade from a compact to a mid-size but that's it. I've heard if you wait till later in the day to pick it up then you have a better chance of getting an upgrade because they usually overbook. But you also run the risk of them having no cars at all.

"Hello Mr. & Mrs. Bike, looks like you have a lot of luggage there. You should upgrade!" NO THANKS! "Sure?" "YES! I don't care if your rental is a THREE wheeler, I want the CHEAP one I reserved!" "Alright then. (Looks at computer...) Oh shucks, Mr. Bike, we're OUT of that model. Would you like to upgrade to the mid-size sedan?" "Is it no charge?" "Of course." "SURE!" Then we walk out to the pick up area and hand the contract to the car delivery person. "Gee Mr. Bike, we're out of that sedan. Would you like a Trooper 4X4 instead?" Is it NO CHARGE?????" "Of course." "SURE!" Double upgrade for nada. Had a blast in and around Seattle in that Trooper for a long weekend. All for the priced of a cheapo. NEVER agree to an upgrade. You'll get it free!
