I still do not know who I went from the " Enterprise " wed site to Kayak, to Dollar, and finally ended up at a Hertz rental only to be told " WE DON"T HAVE A TRUCK FOR YOU " All of you Kayak, Enterprise, Dollar, Hertz...... ARE AWFUL. You cost me $1000.00 in lost sales because I ..... YES I decided to try " Online " reservations as opposed to actually talking to a LIVE person. This was a JOKE...just like your service !!!
