Yeah, I get its busy.
Now, here's the conclusion to this story. I was basically 'gufted' my regular daily rate thru Xmas, returned the car that day. There were 25 cars in the parking lot, FULL. I got a 1 day rental to circle back to the Caribe for my Tica play date, bit the bullet @$400/per, I go to pick up, different agency, lot is full, 50 fukking cars in there.
I get a text from my normal car guy offering me a weekly rate $280 + deposit starting Jan 2 LOL
I bet they all colluded for 1 week and are just washing these cars right now. Nobody is paying $2500 for a rental car for a week. Hell half the tourists here don't have a credit card w a $2500 limit!
I call BS
Well Jackie, you paid a $400 for a single day, that extends to a $2800 weekly rate. Did they throw in a whole bottle of massage oil gratis? Gone from barely navigating Monicas to having a "normal car guy" in two weeks.
Gotta wonder about a newbie who draws his handle from a character in "The Hustler".
There are news reports that 24,000 tourists entered the country in just two days this past weekend. Gringo families just itching to escape the frozen north after several years of travel restrictions. Cheap asses here to practice our hobby are not a target market.
