Today's Dollar special is valid now until 1-31-19.
This morning when I checked nothing beat my $202 rate....then I checked again this afternoon and I booked this
December 10-17
Managers special (they pick the ride)
$198 (saved $4)
Finally saw a decent drop in my rental. Alamo 12/1 - 12/8 [8 day rental] fullsize @ $186. total, AD3868JST and the AP discount code.
I'm with you I have a Dollar for $207 and Alamo for $219 for 10 days, I've always had easy transactions with Alamo and reading about Dollar has me nervous. Their toll policy is my main concern.I have a rental reserved with Dollar for $157 for a compact, 12/11 to 12/16. I just looked at Alamo and with the Costco code and AD3868JST, I can get a midsize for $174. I hate to pay more but I'm nervous to use Dollar over Alamo.

I had Budget try to pull damage on me last time I rented with them in Oct 17. They had two cars available when we arrived to the lot, one was smoked in and the other had 60,000 miles on it with dents to prove it. We were in a hurry to get to our resort for Halloween so I had the attendant note the damage and give me it in writing. When we returned the car a week later the lady checking it over was calculating the damage and tried to get me to authorize it. I pulled out the paperwork and refused to sign for any of the damage. She remove it all and all was good but still left a bad taste in my mouth. We have always had good service with Alamo.what scared me was the thread that @frannn posted that they were sent a bill for $300 for a pre existing scratch from their August rental. I don't need that!
I always take a quick video of the vehicle I rent when I receive it to note any damage, just to be safe.
Just wanted to say that I am an avid Alamo customer but my last two or three trips Dollar has been significantly less expensive so I have gone with them and I have not had any problems at all. Granted I use the cash lane for the few tolls we have gone through but I have not had any trouble. If you have a significant discount with Dollar I would say to give them a try.
Hey everyone! I wanted to ask what other CDPs and Promos were in use? I am trying to book for a last-minute trip 12/16-12/23. Thanks!

Just found out we're going for a quick weekend, so jumping in now.
Alamo 12/14-12/17, Standard, $84 base/$117 total using Costco and free upgrade from midsize (AU2291VYT). Not a bad start, but will keep an eye out as time goes on.
Side comment for those interested that haven't been for awhile: E-ZPass is (mostly) working down there, so bring it along if you like
