E-Z Rent-A-Car in Florida--Anyone here ever use them?
I'll be in Florida in December, and E-Z Rent-A-Car
(http://www.e-zrentacar.com/) is substantially less expensive than Hertz (Hertz was by far the lowest of the major companies). Hertz is $470 for an eight day rental, E-Z Rent-A-Car is $271 for the same eight day rental, both are for full size cars. Does anyone have any experience with E-Z Rent-A-Car? I searched Usenet without finding any opinions, pro or con. |

Does anyone have any experience with E-Z Rent-A-Car?
I searched Usenet without finding any opinions, pro or con. Short answer, no. I used Payless in Orlando once....perfect bait and switch. They didn't have the car I had a confirmed reservation for. They had other, higher cost, vehicles. I was under time restraints so I had to take it. Had it been Hertz, I would have had a car at the original rate, even if all they had was a Lincoln. Alternatively, have you explored Priceline.com for a rental? I have used them successfully more than once. They tend to use the biggies like Avis and Hertz. If their program fits your plans, they are hard to beat. (for hotel rooms, too) |

I recently had a similar experience with Thrifty in Vegas, and when I complained, they "found" a vehicle in the class I reserved that had scratches and drove poorly. Then tried to dun me for the damages that I had marked on the inspection check-out card (I had a copy). I coming around to the POV that a few extra dollars at a reputable agency is worth the expense. To me, that means Hertz, Avis, and possibly National, Dollar or Budget. [R] |
