View Full Version : suv hire
hi, just a quick query about the car hire link on this site, they say the 4x4 suv vehicle they use is a dodge ram 3500 which i thought was a pick-up if not any links to info on this vehicle would be appreciated . do dollar not use cherokee laramies?, which I thought they would be if this link does use dollar rental as they state. this post might seem a bit picky or trivial but I am quite fussy as to what vehicles i would drive.
p:s The price from this site is about £260.00 cheaper than tcd have quoted me so i would like to use this site link. thanks in advance .Mike

But I also think Dodge Ram is a pick up and not a SUV......

Hi Mike
Thanks for pointing that out for us...the 4x4 should have read Jeep Cherokee as the Ram 3500 is one of those huge minivan's that seats 12-15 people. I've now changed the site to show the correct description of the car.
We'll check with Dollar tomorrow about the car type it is likely to be although they usually guarantee a car in the class you have booked but not the exact car type. I can confirm that all our car hire is definitely through Dollar and the price you were quoted is the price you pay.
Yet again my questions answered :D, thanks a bunch guys and gals you just saved me £260:D[8D]

No problem Mike - that's some markup on the car hire they are making out of their guests :(.
They do mark up John, my quote for 3 weeks was £900 for a 7 seater mini van, from here
it was £660

Wow - that's good money if you can persuade people to pay it - just goes to show you can save a fortune by shopping around :).
they rely on the fact that people cant be bothered to shop around, Im always amazed at
the mark up. Like many others we just payed up, but a few years ago started to shop around
and its amazing what sort of holiday you can afford when you do shop around
