I was looking at car rental rates in PV and eventually looked at Budget. I have rented from this location in the past. The cars are not as nice as Avis but they are nice enough. The price for three weeks this next winter was a surprisingly low $23.91 for an intermediate.
This happened a couple of years ago where I picked up an intermediate for two weeks for about $60.
The third party liability is included in the rate. My Amex covers the car. I do have a reservation with Hertz as well. It is $360 for an intermediate for the three weeks. Third party liability is included in this rate and my Amex covers the car.
It really seems like a Budget car online error but I have the reservation.
