  1. HOW TO AVOID GETTING RIPPED OFF AT THE RENTAL CAR COUNTER

  2. Dealing with smarmy car rental dudes requires a certain level of strategy and mental fortitude. The big three -- Avis/Budget, Hertz, and Enterprise -- have plenty of evil-genius methods to get you to spend more money, and some of those add-on charges are pretty sneaky. In our effort to uphold moral justice, we asked former rental car agents and travel experts for their money-saving tips so you can score better rates, avoid getting gypped, and master the art of the car rental.

  3. Never Prepay for a Rental By now you know to book your flight about 47 days before your trip to maximize on the fare's value. Well, the rules of the road are different; rental car rates can vary and are largely driven by supply and demand. Keep an eye on your reservation rate and there's a good chance the price will drop.

  4. Don't Prepay for Gas, Either Before they hand you the keys, the rental agent is required to ask if you want to pre-purchase gas. There's a good chance the drop-off agent will try to ding you with a refueling fee, even if the gas needle is slightly below full. Show them a gas receipt as proof that you filled up within the vicinity and you'll avoid the fee. 

  5. Ask for a Drop-off Grace Period in Advance Are you late to pretty much anything in life? Be sure to ask the agent for a grace period before driving off the lot. Most agencies are pretty strict when it comes to timing -- they'll slap a late fee on your bill if you're an hour or two beyond the return time. So before you go, ask nicely at the counter for a grace period; there's a good chance the agent will throw you a bone and give you an extra two hours for free.

  6. Pay All Tolls Yourself Rental agencies will tell you that they offer the "convenience" of an optional toll transponder, located inside the car. But if you turn it on, you'll pay a daily fee -- usually about $5 per day for the duration of the car rental. That's the kind of nonsense that adds up.

  7. Consider the Less Obvious Rental Car Companies Your rental probably came from one of the "big three" companies: Avis/Budget, Hertz, or Enterprise. But there are still a few independent and somewhat-national brands out there, like Payless Car Rental or Fox Rent A Car, that usually offer comparable vehicles at lower rates. So why not shop local, support small businesses, etc.
