But if I use no AWD, the rate is $14.99, with tax of $1.24, and NO SURCHARGE, for a total of $16.23.

Apparently the surcharges apply only in certain cases. Isn't this a little strange?

I may be wrong on this one....but I've never seen an airport rental without the airport surcharges (which are always hefty). Perhaps LAX waives the airport surcharge for some reason..but I doubt it. I'd be really curious as to input from others that rent there often.
