Last time I tried to rent from Hertz with USAA (around a half year ago), they made me put on the rental a private car insurance code (my father's). I can't do that this time because I am not on the insurance any more. I also do not want to use a CDP that I should not be using (for example, a state of NY garbage truck driver union membership

etc).
I would like to pay less than $275 if that is possible.

I haven't rented a car in some time, so I am not up to par when it comes to deals anymore.
Thanks in advance

Thanks in advance! Looking into relayrides as an alternate option b/c of the differential in price - any thoughts?

Anybody ever try Nü car rentals? Seems ultra cheap. Please chime in if you ever rented from them.

Can I do any better? And will the USAA work with waiving the underage fee? I applied all info so hopefully I can pass the desk to avoid any complications.

It is 5 days like you said... I did try a week and the rate was higher. If I do find a cheap week rate, can I return it early? Is there a fee for that?

I see Dollar / Thrifty / Hertz all have very good one way rates to Florida, $8 a day, however the biggest vehicle offered is a full-size.
Is there any good way to get the same rate for a minivan? i.e. would anyone give me an upgrade? Do any of these have an equivalent of the 'Emerald aisle' where I might be able to choose my own vehicle?
I would be renting from anywhere in NY/NJ area, looking to pickup on or before Dec 31st, and would keep the car for a week.
Any advice welcome.

Hertz has gold choice but usually nvr more than a full size there. There is a reason they are charging so cheap for the car which is bc they need those cars down in Florida.
