A very enjoyable car rental self-drive tour

I have rented cars multiple times and have always been very satisfied.

Renting a car at San Francisco airport was very convenient. Since we didn't quite get used to the first car, we spoke to the staff at Los Angeles airport and they swapped it without any extra charges. Returning the car was also very easy. Overall, it was a great car rental experience.

We picked up the car at San Francisco Airport. The staff handling the pick-up kept insisting that I buy full insurance, even though I already purchased an additional insurance from ZuZuChe. The rental came with plenty of insurance, but he said it wasn't enough. He asked which cities we were visiting, and when I mentioned Las Vegas, he charged an additional fee of around $2 per day, saying that if I didn't pay it now, I would have to pay it in Las Vegas. During our trip to and from Las Vegas, we didn't encounter any such charges, and my friends in the US hadn't heard of this either. Up to now, I have no idea what the extra charge was for. Returning the car in Los Angeles was fairly smooth. We rented a minivan, and the car condition was okay. However, it wasn't very clean inside when we picked it up, and only the USB port on the main dashboard worked, making it inconvenient to charge mobile WiFi or phones in the car.

Good service but tried to upsell at each visit.... bigger car. Small negative, otherwise great. Good value.
