Additionally, you can save time by having AutoSlash generate a quote for you up-front by clicking here, or if you've already got a rental booked, just click here to enter your info and AutoSlash will check to see if a lower rate is available.

If you're looking for a specialty vehicle from Hertz (something from the Prestige/Adrenaline/Green Collections), it is helpful if you can specify the four-letter car size code (i.e. ICAR, MVAR, etc.) shown on the Hertz website for the specific vehicle you're looking for.

Not gonna happen.

I reserved a full size Impala at Budget for $103 all in for same period.

Still trying to give more business to Hertz, but even an Impala costs twice as much to rent under a yellow banner versus an orange one.
