Thrifty saved our vacation!
We initially booked a 7 seater SUV with a cheapo competitor and even paid an upgrade fee for a junky old minivan. As soon as we drove it off the lot it rattled so while we stood in line to return that car and ask for a refund I pulled out my phone and searched for a new rental.
Not only was the experience at the car rental counter fast and efficient but we also got a 2017 Suburban for less than what the other place was going to charge us for a dirty old minivan!
We had an awesome drive to SoCal and enjoyed our Disneyland vacation thanks to our new wheels!
