Do NOT book rental vehicles thru Kayak. We tried it on a trip to LA and Kayak produced a search result with what we wanted… so I paid, including for insurance, but the rental office was miles from the airport, closed when we arrived, and no one picked up the phone on the help line. We went to enterprise booked and paid full price for a car.

Sometimes you can get a lower price or better flexibility or better guarantees with the 3d party than with the rental co itself. And if that 3d party is a reputable company you may actually be better protected than when booking with a small local rental co directly.
I reserve rental cars both from the rental company (often Hertz) and through a third party, usually Expedia. I never prepay because plans change and I don't want a hassle over a refund. So it's always "book now pay later". Never had a problem with getting the car, even when I've made the reservation six months ahead of time.
A car rental, hire car, or car hire agency is a company that rents automobiles for short periods of time, generally ranging from a few hours to a few weeks. It is often organised with numerous local branches (which allow a user to return a vehicle to a different location), and primarily located near airports or busy city areas and often ...
Are the prices for small car rentals on Kayak, Orbitz, etc accurate? 10$ per day, unlimited miles, not much in the way of extra fees? Specifically one way rentals to Florida from New York. Even with optional boxes checked, comes out to like 150$ for a week rental?
