Does that rate include Thrifty's separately itemized, per-rental, drop charge?
On Thrifty's website, it shows the base rate you were quoted, a $330 drop charge, and a total of $736/wk.
Dollar/Thrifty have a different business model when it comes to one-ways. Rather than a higher daily rate like Hertz, Avis, and National, they have the same base rate plus a flat drop charge, no matter how many days you keep the car. So the "premium" brands are better for long distance, short time, and the "discount" brands can be better for short distance, long time.
