I see that ACE offers around 170-200/week, depending on the particular days, and does include an extra driver and basic liability, but not tax and airport fee.

You should be able to do better than 309.

However if it is Hertz it includes liability insurance. I believe you can downgrade to a Yaris for a small bit of a savings from the Corolla.

Another popular TTOL sponsor who we used 4 times prior quoted me $315 + taxes. So much for loyalty. Pays to shop around.

I stand confused and corrected ...but...until the 16th of April it is still listed as high season and those January quotes would apply. The 3rd week of April is much cheaper.

For mid April it is a complete rip off!!!! Check with the sponsors....and run from the one u got this ridiculous price from. Remember, you just want to rent the car...not BUY IT!!

I would re-book with Hertz or someone else. Last edited by gd1147; 04/03/2015 12:25 PM.
