Not the price I agreed on
Cons: I was quoted 100.14 and i was charged 105.17. Their machine system was completely down as well. so everything was done via paper.

RENO Thrift won't accept debit card without proof of a departing fligh
Cons: When I was making my reservation, I selected the option to pay at the counter. So early Saturday morning before my trip when I went to pick up the car, I unexpectedly found out that Reno Thrifty won't accept debit card unless you have two forms of ID and proof that you're flying out of Reno. So I guess they trust travellers more than people who live there? Needless to say Kayak should have said something in the confirmation for people who don't have credit cards. Very frustrating and I just got turned away.

Return rental car at Reno Tahoe Airport is DIFFICULT
Cons: On the website, the Thrifty Rental car return at the Reno-Tahoe Airport (RNO) is designated as Villanova Way in Reno. This is not correct. The GPS maps suggest south of the airport on National Guard Way. Again incorrect. Finally a competitors employee suggested I find Thrifty inside the parking garage, where indeed after a long drive I found the helpful Thrifty employee. Please solve your address difficulties on website, Google Maps, and airport signage. Mahalo!

Pros: We dropped the car off at the Reno airport and it was very easy and fast.
Cons: There was nothing to complain about dropping the car off. It took very little time giving us plenty of time to get our bags checked and make our flight.

Really great experience
Pros: Really great price. Easiest pickup and drop off I have ever experienced.
Cons: I couldn't find the gas flap button so I couldn't fill up the car. However, either could the guy that was checking out the car when I dropped it off so he didnt charge us for the gas.

Longest wait for pickup of any car rental agency at Reno Airport.
Cons: At Reno, you can stand in line at one car rental place and see all the others. Dollar/Thrifty was by far the slowest line. One or two more customer service agents was needed.

Super easy, post burning man.
Pros: So easy to pickup. Kind staff. Variety of cars available. Would suggest everyone coming from burning man take the burner bus and then rent a car in reno from Thrifty.
Cons: The insurance was very confusing.
