    Hertz probably doesn't fix the microscopic dent and charges every customer that rents that car.

    Yeah just fly to your desired destination in the States and then just use Uber/Lift to get around town. That works for me..

    The answer to that is going to depend primarily on location.. I'd say running around town, under 10 miles, 15 bucks tip included. Most big cities you can walk though, maybe just use the Uber for like longer trips..to each their own..

    That makes sense. Yeah I'd never visit Atlanta as a tourist, they'd actually need to pay ME to go there and visit. I was referring to San Diego, LA, circa 2022.
     
    mjd4277 and Chinatown Thank this.

    I was broke down in OKC in early June and rented a car. They said that you're responsible for any hail damage which I thought was crazy. I think that paying for the damage waiver is a good way to avoid any headaches.

    I’ve used Enterprise numerous times and never had an issue at all. The only time a guy tried to make a stink about a scratch, another guy came over and waved him away. I think the key is to get their insurance though, then they don’t feel like messing with it.
