The Rental Car Apocalypse

YellowSnow

I drove down the CA wine country instead of flying into SFO to not deal with this bullshit.

We've only just begun on unintended consequences

However in 2016 when I flew into Atlanta I canceled my rental and took Uber from the airport

Why pay to park a rental?

I just Uber to the Westin Peach Tree. Easy walk over to pre plunger tailgate.

I had to book my rental for October in Hawaii, I hear it’s a great time to escape the ravages of WiFi, back in April. Some friend of a friend that works for a rental company told us to do it that far in advance. It might have been cheaper to buy a used car there, or just Uber everywhere.

Why not use MARTA?

I had no trouble booking a car rental four weeks in advance of last week's trip to Maui, and price was just about what we paid in 2018

How long has this shit been going on? First I knew of it was when we had to put a vehicle in the shop back in March and couldn't find a rental anywhere in the city of Memphis the whole week it was being worked on. Wild shit.

I booked my rental March 25, picked up the car April 26

Maui was crowdeder than I thought it would be, but not like years past. Things are definitely ramping up there tho, lots more people there in April than in March from that the natives said

You seem to be a lucky guy in life. Nothing’s changed with you.
