Did not like the “Luxury” car!

The rental process was convenient. Returning the car was simple; just hand the keys to the personnel. The whole process was easy and straightforward, and the invoice was automatically sent to my email. The charges were clear.

There were quite a few people in line, and the processing was a bit slow.

The staff was indifferent and kept pushing other products. They made us sign without showing a written contract. The ETC charges were especially outrageous (rental fee of $4.33 and daily toll fee of $12.99, whereas the actual toll for Highway 59 was only $1.79). We didn't fully understand the explanation in English about the charges. If they had shown us a written contract beforehand, we wouldn't have rented their ETC. It felt intentional (having us sign first and then presenting the detailed charges).

I recommend choosing a big company. I picked this one just to drive a Chrysler 200c, but there were only three Kias available, and they didn't offer any upgrades. I was forced to drive this old car. Ridiculous.

The car was fine, but The thrifty staff was grossly incompetent and unprofessional. First, they stack on additional property tax onto your bill and say that its standard procedure. This should be disclosed at the time of the booking online, not on the 11th hour when you are checking out the vehicle. Secondly, the counter staff gave me the car keys, turned of the counter lights and fled home (without even inspecting the vehicle). I was stranded at the parking garage for 2 hours because the exit gates were blocked and there was no one from Thrifty to check me out . It was not until 3 am that someone from Hertz gate called for help to let me out. To add insult to injury, when I went back to Thrifty in Dallas to get compensated for their negligence, the counter manager says, we will take off the property tax and that's all she can do because, I may have just been hanging out at the garage for 2 hrs at pickup to create a story. I mentioned that I have videos and pictures as proof of facts on their incompetence and will make sure to warn others of this episode
