Hertz Rent A Car

I have to admit that I had some reservations renting from Hertz based on the overall negative average, but I decided to give them a chance. Overall, pretty great, no hassle experience. My breakdown.
*****
LOCATION: Springfield’s airport is quite small, so it shouldn’t be hard finding this location by baggage claim on the south side of the building (near the entrance).
SERVICES: Basically, if you didn’t call and make a reservation before, they’ll just tell what cars they have available. I had several options to choose from and went with their Hyundai Accent. (Asian cars, FTW.) Also, both people that I chatted with were super nice!
COST: $ 34.99 per day. $ 9.99 per hour. Other costs below:
–FPO: $ 17.20.
–Concession Fee Recovery: $ 10.78
–Vehicle Licensing Cost Recovery: $ 5.56
–Cus Fac+Tax: $ 14.52
–Energy Surcharge: $ 1.49
–Tax: $ 15.74
So as you can see, there are a lot of hidden charges.
RENTED VEHICLE: Incredibly clean on the inside. A few dirty patches on the outside. Drove well. Very comfortable. So, pretty much, as good as it gets.
OVERALL: Awesome experience. Would totally recommend this Hertz location, if you ever need a vehicle in Springfield.

Reserved a car for last week back in August. When thru AAA and got an amazing rate. Apparently the amazing rate was to good to be true since when my wife and I arrived to get our car they said very rudely «We don’t have any cars left, go to Avis». Wow… OK… thanks for nothing.

This is the Hertz location where old cars go to die.
I frequent Springfield often and am a Hertz Gold Member. Usually Hertz Gold gets you low mileage, near new cars. My last several rentals from this site have had approx 50k on the odometer, often with badly unbalanced tires or all sorts of strange noises to go along with the cigarette burns in the non smoking vehicle interior. I almost took the last car back within a mile of leaving the airport but was in a rush.
Unfortunately my company forces us to use Hertz. I thus walk past the late model Dodge Darts, Hyundais, etc, on the way to pick up my focus. Does not matter what class of car you reserve, it is almost always a focus.
Very odd for Hertz to have such a rolling junk heap.
