In LA a friend and I rented a Chrysler 200 with Alamo, through uscarhire.co.uk. Great rental experience and I would recommend this company to anyone. As a matter of fact, I'll be renting with them again on my trip to LA next summer!

Returned a rental car in San Diego w/o refilling the tank. Guy at the rental lot says, "We charge a lot for gas. Want to drive out again & refill?"  And this is after he'd gone to the trouble of processing my papers. This never happened to me before. And you?

Dollar Thrifty and Avis Budget are talking about a possible merger, according to dtag.com. What's in it for us?

Pretty decent writeup posted on Fodors.com several days ago on "How to Rent a Car Cheaply." Nothing particularly new or earth-shattering, but helpful to have it in one easily digestible writeup. It boils down to:

1. Use Priceline.
2. Know how much insurance you need or don't need.
3. Watch out for those little "extras."
4. Avoid airport rentals if at all possible.
5. Watch out for the fine print.
