text: This review is based on my experience thus far dealing with Thrifty rental car in Glendale AZ at st and Cactus RoadsnRented 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 TaurusnEither vehicle would be acceptable as I am and am jammed in anything smallernI call the local storen Oh We NEVER get Chargers or Taurus in this storenOK so what do YOU send out as a full sized rental car nOh That would be an Altima a Malibu or a FusionnAll of which are consistently listed in the rentacar market as standard sizenThe local employees have been curt surly condescending and dismissive I am looking forward to meeting them in personnApparently bait switch is standard practice in the car rental game and there is not much chance that there are any agencies out there who will not happily try to cheat you out of every cent they cannI guess this is more of a Caveat Emptor kind of review on my partnPriceline offers Name your own price option Now THAT IS more of a joke that Captain Kirk running out to sea with a surfboard under his armnJust for fun I offered day for a Mustang convertible the best rate I had seen for my day rental was ishnPriceline AGREED to day for a total of week and then added in charges and feesnOnly thing I know is I think rent as far out as you feel safe your plans will not 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 bonesliability type insurance carriers donFinally ignore any of the humans you may come in contact with during your transaction factoring in they apparently have no marketable skillsnnOh 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 is early days So take this review for what it is worth
