the Price of Renting a Convertible

I rented a black ford mustang convertible for 2 days. The rental cost was $165.98, I got insurance coverage for $30 ($15 a day) and paid $36.88 in tax. We were going on a trip up to Tahoe and wanted a convertible to drive so we could enjoy the scenery and the breeze. The car was in like new condition with lower mileage and was clean, gassed up and ready to hit the road.

I normally wouldn't spend this much on a rental because I usually rent the economy style car but I feel like I got a good deal for the price I paid. We got exactly what we wanted they had great availability at the location I wanted and the whole process was fairly painless. I didn't have to fill out too much paperwork because I made my reservation online. The company I used was very reputable and had good customer service.

Shop around for rates. Know what you want before making a reservation. Make sure you rent something you an drive, for example if you can't drive a stick shift make sure you are renting an automatic to avoid confusion when you go to pick up the car. Make your reservation ahead of time online to ensure availability of the make and model you want.
