I've been reading here for a while, used others experiences over the last year as well. Now I need some help :( Every time I fly out to FAT I end up getting a rental car at the desk. The last time will be the same time as this year. 2/11 - 2/16. Every time I go to rent a car they say it will be like 50/day or so. Well I went to hertz last year and it ended up costing me 889.26 for the few days I was there. I only used the car to go to my hotel, to get food, and to target.. all within 5 miles easily. Is this normal? I'm trying to get to Fresno as cheap as possible and with a decent looking car.
