Cons: I was forced to get an insurance, however it wasn't in terms of service (I did read it!) And even when calling my bank (Chase) I was told that they will do the insurance and I need to decline the AWIS insurance. However I was still forced to get it

Pros: This was my first time using Kayak and I am more than pleased that it worked out as promised!! I was very skeptical given the more than reasonable rate and much to my surprise it was as promised!

Cons: When we arrived at car rental I had to wait for a car that was much larger in size than I wanted. They weren't clear about any extra per mile fee or refill costs so I couldn't find put what to expect. They also told.me the wrong return time in Jerusalem so I ended up returning the car 20 minutes early without refilling the tank. There were also no signs in Jerusalem at the street level directing me where to find the lot for returning the car. I was luck that I didn't get a ticket for parking on the side of the street to run inside to find out where the lot entry was located.

Pricing misleading
Pros: Car worked
Cons: Very long wait at rental counter - almost 90 minutes, and we had a reservation. They advertise very low rates, but by the time you add on 3rd party liability insurance and a 2d driver, etc, the cost is the same as other companies who already include these charges in their daily rates. Compare what other rental companies are offering before you book with Budget. Caveat emptor!

Pros: Be very prepared with rates, insurance, and car type. Print everything. If there is no charge book other car rental also as a back up. Because if you answer NO to the question "Do you have reservations" Be ready to be a sacrificial lamb. Especially at the Ben Gurion Airport in Israel.
Cons: If you are able to finalize everything in the US with no changes during the pick up time. Just do it.

Pros: staff were very good although i was initially to be charged much more than quoted on the booking - i noted the error and it was changed to the quoted rate comfortable car
Cons: there was no staff in the garage when i took the car to ask questions 1. seats were stained 2. Waze did not work 3. Media console was in Russian and we couldn't change it to English or Hebrew 4. Mobile Eye was annoying with too many unnecessary beeps and we couldn't turn it off
