since when is there 2 people

I mean, I don't rent cars that often, and when I do it's at an airport, but that last time I was in FLL, there was an agent that took my CC info etc, and then directed me to the parking lot where another agent showed me to my car...

Its prob to late - once your contract is printed, the guy showing your car - flipping a $20 wont do anything

You have to get the agent inside to walk outside with you to show you what they have. Flip it there!

When I got there he told me any upgrade is only $10 a day. was gonna get a convertible but the weather wasnt suppposed to be great so I got a Mercedes 250 w/ set radio for $63 including taxes for 3 days! Only drawback they charge $6 a day for Sunpass
( Floridas E-Z Pass) so my total was $81
