HUGE increase in weekly SUV rental cost at OGG?
Usually go to OGG a couple of times a year & rent a mid-size SUV (Ford Escape?). This usually prices out to approx $400 for a week (Sept 2012 $414, Jan 2013 $401). However, today for a week in mid-August the quote (before taxes) was about $795. HUH!!!!! Just for comparison, looked at Hertz & the non-member rate for a Rav4 was almost $1k. Anyone see similar price inflation for SUVs at OGG? (BTW, reserved a Jeep Wrangler @ approx $550 for a week, but perhaps can do one of those "pick any car" upgrades on arrival.)
