I think I just found my favorite beta tester. Can you add me on Skype? Avizolty (Or [email protected])

Hotwire shows you "total" price. I think this comes from a) insurance/ underage driver fee b) no clarity on 'taxes' c) messy UX... thoughts?

Uber of car rentals is zipcar though or Relay Rides. But close :)

I agree on the taxi thing but I think the use case of a car rental and a taxi are quite different.

Can you elaborate on 'dealing with staff'- as in they're rude? Or having to wait?

You mention you book online. Do you find that process tedious? I agree overall it always had a godaddy vibe where I feel as if they're trying to upsell me on everything- but find that more annoying from a UX point.

How do you accomplish that? Through their loyalty program?

So would being able to circumvent shuttles be a value add to you? Or insignificant because of relatively short time. What about the wait?

Reserving and finding they oversold is one i've heard a bunch. deff working to change that. As for the tranny, was this something that happened at one of the "main brands" (hertz, avis) or a second tier one? and could the fear be solved by automatic free insurance?

Ryan, thanks for your input! I was under the impression Silvercar required you to take a shuttle there, is this not the case anymore? Or maybe not an issue for you?

Like hotwire? As in not telling you which car company you're booking from? Or adding hidden costs after? Can you elaborate?
