Chevrolet Cruze 2015

Overall, the car was decent and served its purpose of getting me from point A to point B without any issues. One thing I really appreciated was how great it was on gas, especially for a longer trip. I also liked that 400 miles were included in the rental, which was a huge plus! I only went over by 145 miles, bringing my additional mileage cost to about $87. In total, the rental cost me approximately $287, or close to $300 when factoring in tolls. For the distance I traveled, I think it was a convenient and reliable transportation option. Overall, it was a good rental experience and a great source of transportation for my trip!

This was the first time I’ve ever needed rent a car for a longer period of time. This was the best car for it. Although, due to my son’s sports I went over miles I still made sure that I got it washed and cleaned before returning it. Would highly recommend this host and his list of cars this was the 3rd car I’ve rented from them and every single one of them was great no issues.
