After the Thrifty incident (http://www.yelp.com/biz/thrifty-car-rental-enterprise#hrid:0lRLXB6ZaJma59O8Dfyp_Q/src:self ), we went to the Hertz counter.
My friend's corporate code worked and we didn't have to pay the under 25 fee.
Yet, somehow despite our research on insurance--by calling both our insurance companies and our credit card companies-we were talked into getting insurance.
At least I learned one thing: if I had AAA, I wouldn't have had to pay the additional driver fee.
You get a 2 for being pushy and for not having many car options. Out of economy? Blahhhhh.
