You should probably try a Jewish place, IMO.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Probably true because a one way from airport to airport for a mini van and those dates will probably be a boatload of money

Interesting, I checked Budget and put down Israel as place of residence, and got a quote of ₪1316 ($337) using Chabad corporate code, for a Standard Elite 7 seater SUV (Explorer or similar). That seems very cheap.
$337 for 2 weeks?? Something must be wrong. Taxes itself and airport fees are probably more than that

Yeah, deleted. I put in the wrong dates. It's more like $737 for the smallest SUV and betting on a double upgrade to a 7 seater, which will never happen.
The Jewish places in Brooklyn should be around $60 a day.

Since it will be "a boatload of money" for Pesach, wouldn't it be cheaper renting from a non jewish place ?
Besides, they want to pick up the car at the airport and i doubt a jewish place will deliver the car to the airport.
