    Hey guys the point I was trying to make is that if I book Gold Inclusive on this site I get a days car hire and a full tank of gas for $42, which is about what the gas would cost on its own, so the car hire is just about free.
    I suppose if I want to come back I book another single day Gold Inclusive from this site and do it in reverse.


    There are 4 of us so airfare would be expensive and we still wouldn't have transport when we arrived at the destination airport, in addition we are going via Tampa so it would mean 2 flights, taxis from airport all that stuff.

    The whole point of the topic was that its only £3 more to get a full tank of gas included. Got to be the cheapest gas fillup in the entire USA right now.

    I have just had a an e-mail from a good friend over in Orlando and mentioned that the gas is rocketing up in price, and is becoming very scare.

    Please make sure you have at least a half of tank before the next fill up.

    We got caught out in Hurrican Charley last year. Never thought there would be a problem with gas, and was only on the bare minimum when the hurricane struck. Our friend had to help us out with a gerry can which got us to the nearest filling station which did have fuel at the time.

    We now always keep the care topped up until the trip to the airport which takes about half a tank.

    Half a tank sounds like much too much to go from the "Disney Area" even to Sanford, let alone Orlando MCO.
    Maybe they go to Tampa, even that wouldn't take me half a tank.
    I don't like running on fumes, the car rental company usually win a couple of gallons from me at drop off, just to be on the safe side and not to risk missing my flight for the sake of a few dollars worth of gas.

    Gas in Kissimmee yesterday just under $3 a gallon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
