I never got the car. That location has been closed for 6 months +. When I showed up (I had to drive 2.5 hours to pick up) the building was closed down. I called enterprise at a different location, they said they were booked solid for a week out and basically I was SOL. That I should’ve never been told I could rent anything in that area. I’ve been trying to get my $26 back for the insurance I was charged but no one will help me. So then o had to turn around and drive 2.5 hours back home. So he while thing was a complete joke.
