Vroom Vroom........ Alamo rental out of MSY

I was wondering what input folks had here about this service.... I got an attractive rate for my last minute MSY rental, its a very boooring car from Alamo but it was a heck of a lot cheaper than AVIS.

Never used Vroom before, and Im no huge fan of Alamo but then, what can go wrong with a Corolla.... I guess I can expect to get a decently new car from Alamo in late September or will they be crazy busy out of MSY...????

Thanks,
Alex

 

Crazy busy and MSY are not commonly in the same sentence! (unless it's Mardi Gras)

I'm not sure about the car rental scene, but I can ask for you in a week when I fly back in.

 

Thanks, greatly appreciated. Its good to hear it wont be crazy busy.....

I still am wondering about Vroom though.... seems like nobody has used it here before.

 

Or Jazzfest... gets pretty busy around that time too

I looked at the "Vroom" limited coupon thing (I feel as silly typing that as ordering the rooty tooty from IHOP) but the price was about the same as Dollar last I went down there. I remember going with Dollar just because they had nicer cars at MSY (I ended up with a relatively clean Chrysler 300 IIRC).

 

Well.. the Alamo rental went well... Got a Chrysler 200 that was boooring... and not very new, but it was OK. Plus, unlimited miles, CDW and supplemental insurance included in the rate for a 5 day rental all at $221 (all taxes included) was a very decent deal indeed..... pls. consider Im not a US resident so don't have access to the rock bottom rates that would normally apply to a US based person.......

I will continue to check Vroom for future rentals.... sounds like a decent tool.
