The car's condition was average, over 30,000 miles, and the seatbelt buckle was missing. Every time I had to put on the seatbelt, I needed to open the car door and get the buckle out from underneath, which was quite inconvenient.

Both the pick-up and return process were quick, and the deposit was only 100 dollars. The entire experience was very pleasant. When renting a car, you don't need to worry about electronic tolls, as most American highways are toll-free.

When picking up the car, I asked how to pay for the tolls and was told the car has an E-pass, but it didn't. As a result, I had to wait for a bill for the tolls. Many highways in Massachusetts and New York don't accept cash and bill by mail, which is more expensive than E-pass. I'm unsure how much the toll fees will be now. When returning the car, I went to the shared location for Budget and Hertz at Union Station. The service attitude was indifferent.

Aside from the lengthy pickup time and the expensive e-toll device fee, the car was good and returning it was convenient.
The e-toll device fee of $3.95 per day, calculated by calendar days, is expensive! The pickup time was quite long, but everything else was fine, and the car was fairly easy to drive.

The car had an engine warning mid-trip, and it took half a day to find a store that could provide a replacement. Many stores couldn't offer replacement services or home services.
