Could anyone please shed a light on what other cars I might get. Thanks Also, a P.S. question...I got a $200 weekly rate (248 incl. taxes) - how come the neighborhood branches are showing more than that on the site? Thank you very much |
1) Maxima's are very nice cars, an most people know that. The branch you are renting from may have a few Maxima's in their fleet. Like most Japanese cars customers want to get Maxima over other American made cars. You probably wont get one because as soon as they come in they go out again. Also, I was under the impression that a Maxima was classified as a Luxury car (above premium), things might be different in DC but that is what it is classified as in So. Cal so you may have to dish out a little more scratch
The Magnum is not that great. First off, its a station wagon. Second off, its got huge blind spots due to the small windows in the back. I won't want one, but that's my personal taste.
More than likely you will get an american made car like a charger or similar.
2) The rates at airports fluxuate on a daily basis. One day it might be cheaper than a neighborhood branch, the next day it might be considerably more. It really depends on what day of the week you rent a car.
