Advantages: Always new cars in their fleet Disadvantages: none
...the free car thrown in Dollar rent a car has always served us well.
The cars are normally very new, however make sure that you inspect the car very carefully for any damage and if you find any make sure you see a rep and have it noted on your hire ticket before you leave the rental depot as I understand you can be held responsible for any damage on the rental car even if it was there when you collected it.Its the last thing in the world you actually ... ...few extra minutes checking the car over.
It also makes sense to upgrade your car at the time of booking in the UK as its normally cheaper than upgrading on the spot.
I personally find that the option of taking out the fully inclusive insurance packages at the time of booking are the best option to waiting until arrival in Florida. ...

Advantages: Very Handy at Sanford Disadvantages: Hard sell !!
Dollar have a great range of cars from economy (ford Ka Type) to large saloons, off road vehicles , jeeps etc. they also have mini vans (7 seats) up to 15 seater Dodge Ram Minibuses. All are in excellent condition and are usually new or nearly new. Always check the vehicle before you drive it away, as you may be charged for damage you never did. Dollar offer a platinum car hire package which means you get the top insurance, all extra drivers over ... ...the one to take as Dollar charge double for fuel to what you will pay at gas stations outside the airport. Always take the cars back fairly tidy as I have heard of people losing their security deposit just for a small bit of rubbish left in a vehicle at drop off. Always wait until your vehicle has been signed off by the checker because they could always say the car wasnt in good condition when you know it was.
Most Travel agencies (eg TCD) include ...

Advantages: Good location at airport Disadvantages: total rip off at check in.
Having used Dollar for many, many years withour problems I had no hesitation this time. However it has turned out to be a complete nightmare. We paid car hire and all inclusive insurance with tour company in the uk prior to travel. On arrival we were told we were tour VIPs and could choose from the list displayed on the counter. We opted for a full tank of fuel and returned it full. This was checked when we returned the car. Weeks later after arriving ...

Advantages: low price Disadvantages: limited selection of cars, don't have cars that you reserve
...like the showed on the Dollar Rental site. All they had for me was a Dodge minivan. If I would have known that there was the slightest chance that I would end up with a minivan I would rented from somone else. I felt that it was a bait and switch. I had reserved it at the San Francisco Airport for a nice tour of the Russian River Wine Country with my wife and 25 year old daughter and her new boyfriend for a long weekend October 13-15,2006. I thought ...

...to the hotel, Registered at dollar with the confirmation ready to collect the hire car.
We upgrade firstly as we are told that we will not fit all the bags in the medium sized car, so upgrade we do to a monster car, We ask the man how we should get the hotel and he sends us the longest way you could possibly think off and on all toll roads (when you have just got into a new country small change is not what you have), So off we go to fid the car, ... ...we actually got back to Dollar and I mentioned the light I was told that it was the computer advising of a problem with the engine and that most of the time they were just false readings.
On return of the car we ask for out $45 refund as we filled the fuel tank up at the airport station, we were told that we would have to wait until we got home and they would re credit the card, Now 5 months on we are battling with dollar and still have no refund, ...

...seperate occasions but on arrival Dollar couldn't fulfill this so gave us a Lincoln town car & then a Chrysler Seebring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pure luxury & a cabriolet sports car - What a bargain for economy prices! In future we'll be disappointed if we don't get a non-economy car for economy prices! Dollar were nothing more than obliging - hadn't got what we wanted but didn't let us down! The cars were in very good condition but give ...
