3 reasons to rent from Budget Rent A Car
Apr 13, 2021, 1:22 PM
|
|
1 - I had fastbreak and avoided the lines
2 - They upgraded me from a fullsize to a premium. Got a 2021 300M loaded with 2K miles on it. Nice ride.
3 - Kid of found a $100 bill tucked between the back seats.
WIN!

Worth every penny not to be a cheapskate flying in and out of there.
As the airport I fly most frequently out of, TSA Pre and Clear are worth every cent.
It's the worst.

Like buying one, or renting one?

[ in reply to One question, was it just habit or do you think that ] |

I haven't seen a company that charges for mileage.
As for buying one...I know how I treat them. I can't imagine what other people do to them. Regardless of the mileage, that's a big "no thank you".
