Does anyone have any suggestions for long term (2-3 month) car rental during the Fla. snowbird season? I was thinking maybe used car lot or such. I would like to explore other options than dragging a car all the way down and all the extra costs associated with towing.
Thanx
All I can tell you is I was totally shocked at what the rates for rentals are down here! :E
Just a heads up for you.
Didn't make any difference which well known chain of rentals I called the cost was over double what the rates where in the Midwest. AND there was not one of them that offered any of the discounts I was accustomed to up North. Floridians will tell you the rates are normal but they don't have anything to compare to. The rates are way high compared to the Midwest rental agencies. They can and they do because they have a captive audience and destinations like Disney.
For what you would have to pay for a rental in Florida you could pay for the gas to drive back and forth 4 times towing your toad and still be ahead and have money left over for a nice dinner out! :B
