  • This review is based on my experience thus far dealing with Thrifty rental car in Glendale, AZ at 51st and Cactus Roads. Rented a car via Priceline... Got a killer rate on a "Charger or similar"... Called national to find out what 'similar' actually translates to... In this case a Ford Taurus. Either vehicle would be acceptable as I am 6'4" and am jammed in anything smaller. I call the local store... "Oh, We NEVER get Chargers or Taurus in this store..." O.K. so what do YOU send out as a 'full sized' rental car. "Oh, That would be an Altima, a Malibu or a Fusion..." All of which are consistently listed in the rent-a-car market as "standard" size. The local employees have been curt, surly, condescending and dismissive... I am looking forward to meeting them in person. Apparently, bait & switch is standard practice in the car rental game and there's not much chance that there are any agencies out there who will not happily try to cheat you out of every cent they can. I guess this is more of a "Caveat Emptor" kind of review on my part. Priceline offers "Name your own price" option... Now THAT'S more of a joke that Captain Kirk running out to sea with a surfboard under his arm. Just for fun I offered $25/day for a Mustang convertible... (the best rate I had seen for my 12 day rental was $540ish) Priceline AGREED to $25/day for a total of $300/week, (and then added $237 in charges and fees). Only thing I know is ( I think)... rent as far out as you feel safe your plans won't change and research the vehicle (plus or minus) that meets your needs and confirm that your insurance carrier DOES in fact cover you in this car (which all but the most bare bones/liability type insurance carriers do). Finally, ignore any of the human's you may come in contact with during your transaction factoring in they apparently have no marketable skills. Oh well... Ultimately when I went to pick up the car it was in fact a Ford Taurus which has become a substantially nicer vehicle than I recall from it's early days... So, take this review for what it's worth.
