would you like to pick it up from anywhere in particular?
What would be the cheapest if you could pick up at any location in the US?

I rented a car from avis in buffalo ny (it was a one wayer to clev) a month ago for some reason the usaa did not work and they charged me a underage fee ($35!!) I called up and tried giving them the usaa number to add on and it did not work. does anybody have any ideas for me? tnx!
try calling again? when u made the reservation was the usaa cdp on it? if yes they should honor it

I will try again the cdp was on the reservation but only after I left the airport did I realize that they charged me for underage so I called them afterwards and they told me it didn't change anything when she added it on. but ill try again...tnx
But I'm still proud to be from clev!

if he comes from Israel, he don't have cc insurance, so the best rate will be 183 all inclusive by Alamo.
