When booking a car, keep checking back as your travel date gets closer. 2 weeks ago I used the “Dan Instructions” to book a 4 day rental for a trip to Denver.
All costs are **AFTER** the 2 day free code, so double it for standard rental days
Aug 1: A4 & Q5, $50/day
Aug 10: A4/$37 Q5/50
Today: A4/$35, Q5 $40. Now I see they started dropping the prices on the higher models: A5 Cabrilolet $55, $Q7 $50. These were originally MUCH higher (I cant remember since I was focusing on lowest cost)
Right now on the A4 total 4 days with fees is $187. Subtract Dan’s $25 referral code and the first tine renter $25 gift card, net cost is $137. If the prices continue to drop I will probably up the ride.
So whenever you book, keep checking back
NYC locations
Cheapest option is the A4 at $163 a day before taxes….
Price you pay for living/visiting NYC 😉
Depends on week. This week is extremely expensive in NY. I rented a month ago from Brooklyn location for four days, I used the 2 day free code and my total after taxes for the A4 (with the S trim line) was $160. It’s a real awesome car for that price range.
Can two discounts be used for one reservation?
Just finished a $500 reservation..
Will the points post retroactively?
Dan,
Regarding Insurance coverage, are Chase & Amex the same?
Did you you ever do an article on this subject?
Tks
I just completed my 2nd Silvercar reservation. Thank you, Dan! There really is no other way to rent a car.
My first rental was with the Q5. I wish I would have just taken the A4, but I was worried I would be transporting more people with bags. It drove nicely enough, but the suspension is firmer than I would like, and the handling is nothing like a sedan.
Just a few weeks ago, I rented an A5 convertible. It was a dream. Drives fast, handles like a beast, and a reasonably comfortable drive. German cars are known for their “firm, but soft” suspension. The A5 was no exception. Lots of fun to take down that top, though.
Thanks for the recommendation!
Can I ask you where you rented it and how much the cost was?
Thanks @Dan I knew you would get it straight!
If i have a Chase sapphire Preferred and have regular Geico auto insurance, i know they’ll cover the liability. Which one should i be puting down for my personal coverage?
Chase
Thank you, for this and for all that you do.
Do I need to buy liability insurance the car rental offers to be covered?
Do you have your own auto insurance?
No but I do have the chase Reserve so I always decline all coverages. I guess there is no way to have liability insurance without purchasing it from the car rental correct?
How do I combine the free day and the 20% off
Visa Infinite card holders get 30% off in general. Chase Saphire Reserve is a Visa Infinite card.
How?
I’ve used them several times in Florida, and I have been happy. But one thing they did recently ticked me off. For the first couple of years they wouldn’t charge you extra for using the Sunpass in the car. They would simply pass through the tolls accrued to you about a week after your rental. They now charge a $5 fee. While’s it’s inconsequential in the grand scheme of things, it’s a little annoying.
THANK YOU, DAN
Just got A4 for $250 in Phoenix for four days
Thanks for those coupons – just switched my rental for next week to Silvercar
can you leave your vehicle with them during your rental?
can i use this promotion more than once?
Thanks for the discount codes. They still work and I got a nice savings on my PHX rental. I used your referral code too!
