Cons: When we tried to return the car at the Philly airport, we drove past all the rental agencies until we were routed back onto the highway. We had to pull off and scramble to find their drop off location which was a mile or so off site. The service was also unfriendly and total was doubled b/c of fees.

Shakedown at the pickup counter
Pros: Lots of choices for the cars in the aisle. Smooth return process.
Cons: 25 to rent an ezpass. My total rental was 35 plus 20 in fees without the ezpass. What a joke, totally out of line with the price of the rental. High pressure sales on insurance as well. Understaffed rental counter, long wait.

Hassle free
Pros: For both check out and return the service members were friendly helpful and polite. It made what could have been a delay in the trip run smoothly and on time
Cons: There wasn't anyone outside in the parking structure when I arrived there to actually get the car. Luckily another service member came out to check on us.

Abandoned drop off location.
Cons: No staff to receive the car. No spaces available to park the car. Had to beg for an envelope at a nearby hotel as there were no drop-off envelopes available.

Deception marketing vs real offer and pricing
Pros: Nothing because it was not true when in Thrifty agency
Cons: Offer was a lie. I paid 200 when booking but ended up paying 350. They obliged me almost, to take e-z pass, insurance (even though I insisted several times that my credit card had one), and they are not aligned to Hotwire: Hotwire sold me an insurance for 36, and they told me it is not useful and not even 0.01 would be useful, I had to spend more.

It was fine
Pros: The price was okay and it got me from point A to point B. The agent who helped me was efficient.
Cons: The car itself seemed in need of service. The brakes were noticeably low, making driving in traffic stressful. There were also several concerning squeals and rattles coming from under the hood. If there's one thing I expect above all when renting a car, it's that I shouldn't have to worry about the car itself.
