Here are my impressions from this trip: 1. Regarding toll roads: When picking up the car, I told the staff I would pay the tolls myself, and they said OK, but didn't say anything else. Later, I drove on a toll highway in California, but when I tried to pay, I couldn't do so online. It showed the car belonged to the rental company and couldn't be paid. When I returned the car, I asked the staff and learned that the tolls would be deducted from the deposit, plus a small handling fee of a few dollars. Almost a month later, I received a notification of the deductions: a toll of a little over three dollars and a handling fee of a little over six dollars, totaling a little over ten dollars. It wasn't a lot of money, but I wasn't happy. I felt the staff hadn't explained the details beforehand. 2. Regarding insurance: I bought two enhanced insurance policies through Ctrip. The purchase page stated that these policies couldn't be bought from the rental company, only through Ctrip, and were underwritten by a domestic insurance company. I would have to pay upfront and claim reimbursement after returning home, which seemed very troublesome. Later, when I picked up the car, the rental company also tried to sell me enhanced insurance. When I asked about the price, it was surprisingly cheap, almost the same as the price in China. I felt very annoyed; I felt Ctrip's approach was unethical. 3. For free vehicle upgrades, you need to repeatedly confirm with the staff on-site. If you're thorough, they won't try to trick you. I was initially paying for an upgrade, but after repeated confirmation, I was upgraded from a standard-size SUV to a full-size SUV for free. This is a reminder to other travelers, but it really tests your oral communication skills. 4. I chose a large brand rental company because they won't be too picky about the car's condition upon return. I drove in the desert, resulting in the car being in poor condition, but the staff glanced at it and approved it upon return. Smaller companies probably wouldn't have been so lenient. 5. The full-size SUV was great, but the fuel consumption was really high. And with the highest gas prices in the US, it was basically one RMB per kilometer. After driving over 3,000 kilometers, the cost of refueling was one or two times higher than when I came to the US before.

I usually don't bother leaving reviews unless there are serious issues. The staff's attitude was fine, they just pretended not to know anything. The car they gave us was terrible, a complete downgrade. It couldn't even fit our luggage. Pictures one and two show the car they initially gave us. I later checked, and this car is at least 200 yuan cheaper per day, which would be 2200 yuan for 11 days. (The staff probably thought Chinese people were easy to take advantage of.) We went back and argued that we needed an exact replacement car, or at least a car of the same size and class. They gave us the same car we ordered, but it was parked in one of the three parking spaces next to it. (Meaning this car was just sitting there, the one we ordered.) Pictures three, four, and five show the car we ordered and finally received. In conclusion: Whether in Europe or North America, it doesn't matter if the car they give us is different, as long as it's the same size and class. Don't try to fool us. Stand up for what you get if it's unsuitable.

I arrived a bit late, but the Mexican guy was incredibly kind and upgraded me to a BMW for free. I also loved the license plate, and most importantly, it was cheap. I'll definitely choose Avis again next time! There was absolutely no hard selling or hidden charges.

The vehicle is new and the driving experience is good. All of the above is fine, but it would be even better if there were Chinese-speaking staff or someone who could understand a little Chinese. Our secondhand English is a bit tiring.

This little car has been with me for almost two months. Although I found the sunroof was broken, the interior hadn't been washed, and the windshield washer fluid reservoir was intermittent when I picked it up, I still decided not to replace it. The car is fine; it's just that the previous driver didn't take good care of it. Every time I return the car, it's full of gas, but I always find it empty when I pick it up. This poor little car hopes to encounter more good drivers.
