Toyota RAV4, the vehicle is very new, with just over 14,000 miles. A very good car rental company, quick pick-up and drop-off processes, very efficient. Will definitely choose Alamo's car rental service again if I have the chance.
We originally booked a Toyota RAV4, for 4 people and 3 suitcases. In reality, we had 4 people and 5 suitcases, so we upgraded to a Nissan Pathfinder. The luggage space was still insufficient, and we had to fold down the last row of seats to solve the issue. Fortunately, there were only 4 of us. The upgrade also added windshield insurance, which we accidentally accepted and ended up spending an extra thirty dollars. The car’s condition was excellent, no complaints.
Economy car booked at LAX.
On arrival counter clerk tried to get me to up-grade to a Compact car, saying it would be roomier and more comfortable over long distances at an additional cost of only so many more dollars per day, which I declined and said I would stay with the Economy car booked, asked about cruise-control and was told that only Full-size cars had cruise and would do well to upgrade to one [ at extra cost of course. ]
I again declined and was then given a Compact car, at no extra cost. Why ?
Because they did not have any Economy cars, having previously tried to get me to pay for an up-grade which they were bound to give me gratis anyway ! Nice try Alamo.
On checking 5 different makes of Economy cars, I found that they ALL had cruise control, making the counter-hand, at best, woefully ignorant of the features of the vehicles Alamo rent out, or a deliberate liar at worst.
Commission-hungry rental agents who are prepared to tell customers anything to boost their income do little to maintain the reputation and integrity of Alamo.
I have taken the matter up with Alamo and am waiting for their response, but thought I should advise you of the dubious methods being practiced there.
