The milage is unlimited. However, if driven out of the three state area then the rate is applied at $0.35 per mile over 100 miles per day. It's a 7 day contract so I'd be charged $0.35 for everything over 700 miles. I've already put on over 1,000 miles so that's at least 300 x $0.35 = $105 plus $50 processing. Yuck. The contract did have the term on it but I didn't realize there was a restriction until I picked up the car. I may just need to pay it...if they show that the car was driven out of state. Again, my concern is, do they really have a GPS in the car that would show this? By the way, this is a hybred Honda Civic which is a pretty nice ride but it's a real basic model. They don't provide the remote key so to lock it you must use a key. Tks, Ron

I rented a car from Fox Car Rental in Phoenix, AZ. The contract says the car can only be used in AZ, CA and NV. I took the car to New Mexico for a few days. Their contract says they have GPS units in the car and will charge $50 plus $0.35/mile for anything over 100 miles/day. This could add up to big bucks for the week I've rented. Does anyone know if Fox actually has a GPS unit in their cars? Is there a way around this charge or a way to challenge it? Heck, I could have driven to San Francisco and back without a charge but to New Mexico and back could be really expensive. Any thoughts? Anyone know how they do this? By the way, the shuttle from PHX to their lot took almost 30 mintues to show up and the lot has a bit to be desired. This is one of the lowest end facilites I've ever seen. Thanks, RentalRon
