Actually, yes... I got a hell'uva deal from Hertz for a full-size car via http://www.vroomvroomvroom.com/ that was substantially less costly then by renting from them directly... Also checked Budget, Eurocar, Avis & Thrifty's web sites and found Vroom's to offer a much better deal. I think that Hertz may want to move some cars from Sydney right after the New Year's festivities to Melbourne due to the Australian Open starting on 14 January and Melbourne being packed with visitors??? For whatever reason, I got a full sized car for an extended rental period picking up in downtown Sydney w/drop-off at MEL for no one-way fee w/unlimited mileage and about half the usual rental fee!
