If you want to travel entirely by yourself, you may want to think about renting a vehicle rather than purchasing one so that you can save money on the expenses associated with transportation. However, if you are going on a vacation with more than two people, it is imperative that you hire a minivan. The places that you want to go to throughout your trip need to play a role in determining the kind of rental automobile that you choose. It is to your best advantage to hire a mid-size SUV if you have plans to go to locations that can only be accessible utilizing transportation designed for use off-road.

It took forever (about 25 min) to pick up the car. Dropping off was a bit quicker, but there was a long line with only one person working. Car had some damage, and it was only noted after I asked gat we do a walk around. Inside of the car was dirty and even had some animal hair in the back seat area.0,0 Poor

May 2021
Pros:
The only positive things I can say about Fox car rental is one, the person who checked me in was friendly and courteous, number two, the person who checked me in upon my return was friendly and courteous. Their customer service took 45 minutes to answer the phone and the representative was discourteous and condescending. They did a bait and switch with the type of vehicle that I had requested. The vehicle smelled of cigarette smoke, the windshield on the interior was not cleaned. I had to buy a bottle of for breeze and Windex and paper towels to make the car suitable for my trip. I would never ever rent from this company.Cons:
They could be honest with their customer, they could train their customer service representatives to be more customer service oriented. And they should give the customer the type of vehicle that they had requested. It goes back I guess to the old saying, You get what you pay for.4,0 Mediocre

Pros:
Only girl at window was sullen, uninterested in her job, and abrupt. I was the only customer at that late hour. She charged me $150.00 deposit on top of the rental charge. I have not yet been reimbursed and don’t know to whom I should demand my deposit back.Cons:
Seems the whole organization procedures and staff need complete change.10,0 Wonderful
