GM Mike Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Pretty sure I used the links here for this. Then completely forgot to post about it. As I recall, that weekend I really needed an SUV and they were priced at $250+ !Turns out, the "SUV" they decided to give me was essentially a station wagon. Really unpleasant conversation about it at the desk; was ultimately told I had to pay a substantial upgrade fee to get into anything that actually looked like an SUV. (Of course, I stubbornly refused and the station wagon worked out well enough.)Mid-Size SUVPick-Up /Drop Off: Albany - County (ALB)737 Albany Shaker Road, Albany, NY 12211On AirportPick-Up Date & Time: Thursday, June 20 2013 - 6:00 PMDrop-Off Date & Time: Sunday, June 23 2013 - 6:00 PMPurchased Date: June 18 2013Your Offer Price: $20.00 (per day)Total Rental Days: 3SubTotal: $60.00Taxes and Fees: $23.89Total Rental Car Charges: $83.89 You saved 74%!* Link to comment

GM Mike Posted September 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Sorry to hear you had an issue regarding the car class... do you recall the brand/model of the vehicle you were given?I want to say it was a Nissan Rogue. The main issue is how short the cargo area is. It really has the feel of a station wagon with tall tires. Probably 1/4 - 1/3 less storage area than what I would have expected from a "Midsize SUV". And the seats didn't quite lay flat. Link to comment
