Real Reviews / Real Renters
The car I ordered wasn\'t there. They tried to pawn off a fuel guzzler on me until another more fuel efficient vehicle showed up which I ended up having to wait 45 minutes for it to be cleaned. Nothing was offered for my time and inconvenience. I also heard over people up at the counter that were paying 50$ less a week for a full size vehicle than I paid for what was suppose to be an economy car. I\'m not very impressed.
