Budget Rent A Car Has CMAXes

Budget Rent a Car now has the CMAX in its fleet.  There are only a few available.  Here is the secret to getting one for rental.

 

  • First, join the Budget Fast Break Program online.  Members get additional priority.  You will need it.
  • Look up your local Budget, not the 800 number.
  • Call during regular business hours, and ask to be connected to the Fast Break representative.  (If you call during high volume times, sometimes, you might get rolled over to the 800 number.  If that happens, hang up, and keep calling the local office until you reach them.)
  • Tell the representative that you need to rent a specific vehicle, not one in the same class.  Let the representative know that you are local, and that you can be flexible with dates, times, etc., just so that you can get the specific vehicle.  Ask that this be written into the notes section of your reservation.
  • Ask what time you should call in the day of your scheduled rental to verify that the CMAX is available.
  • Call to verify, and change the reservation as needed, until you get the CMAX.

I am in the middle of a 24 hour rental of an SEL from Budget.  This has helped tremendously in making the decision on selecting my vehicle and options.

 

Hopefully, this will help somebody else that wants to do more than a 10 minute test drive before making the final decision.
