I just booked a car for a one way trip from Los Angeles to Denver. I got a pretty good rate, although the LDW was high ($25 per day). However, I figured I'd hang on to it while I search for more options elsewhere. I suddenly noticed that my rental was limited to about 1000 miles or so, and that after that it was $0.43 per mile - is that typical for budget? or just because this was a one way rental? I am so relieved that I saw that and promptly cancelled the reservation.

Wow finding a car rental at a decent rate can be time consuming.:td:

By the way I'm new to Budget and I can't help but noticing that most of the threads in this area of the forum are negative or complaints about Budget. Pretty interesting.

LAX and surrounding Budget locations are franchises, not the corporate stores that like to specialize (or at least claim they do, if their pricing seems to show otherwise) in one-ways.

Thanks Auto Enthusiast. I was driving into my office this morning and noticed there was a budget local office about three quarters of a mile away, so I thought I might give that a try since I could just walk over there (vs. going to LAX to get a car.) Clearly that's not going to be an option, but I'm still hunting.

Big chance we might fly to Denver and just rent a car (any size) when we get there. Only wanted to larger car if we were driving so we could have more space, in case we needed to nap in the car, etc.)
