There are three price categories of rental car at the airport. They all rent basically the same cars, but one is seriously understaffed, one is majorly understaffed, and one is five separate rental companies operated by a single guy who also runs a Subway.

The prices are developed in a random number generator with an algorithm to ensure they do not repeat.

Surprise, you thought there were three rental car company alliances but they're actually all subsidiaries of each other in a circle like a corporate ouroboros.

I mean at least at the third place, you get that free bread-scented air freshener with your rental.

And then there is Fox, which is located on a dodgy side road near the cargo terminal, rents bad cars cheaply, and also deals in black market organs, probably.

and when they dont have your car it's your fault for not paying more because then they would have a car for you... the downgrade to the car you paid for but can't get today
