depending on the place they have to pick you up and if they cant they pay you for a taxi so if you call half hour b4 the close they usually dont have anyone to pick up, so i just get a ride.

why do they pick you up?

are these rates around for a few day rental?

Hertz has on option to pick up if u live a few min drive from the location, so park slope will usually pick up from CH.

that rate u cant get now, because it used to be that Hertz SA in brooklyn would be $29.00 +/- and he used a $25 coupon which makes would bring it down to almost nothing.
but now (these days) i havent seen such rates really. maybe its the season.

wonder if they would risk giving out prestige/adrenaline to under 25. i was told they can lose their job for it
Dunno what all these name mean, but I rented a Mercedes SUV under 21 w/o any problem. I payed for the upgrade.

Won't post any other details.
