在租车时，有很多问题立即出现 - 尤其是当柜台后面的人开始试图让您为账单添加一堆东西时。以下是租车之前要知道的四件事。

Fueling Considerations

几乎每个汽车租赁员工都会试图说服您预付汽油，我们知道，这听起来确实很诱人。毕竟，您必须少停止。但是，预付费率要比您在泵上自己支付的费率要高得多。此外，请确保您在离开时注意该地区的加油站，以免自行退回荒谬的费用，如果您的汽油比拿起汽车时少的汽油返回。

支付保险

Before you pay for insurance on a car rental, check your own first. In most cases, your car insurance will cover you in any vehicle you have permission to drive, thus making the agency’s insurance unnecessary. There are also some credit cards that offer protection when used for renting a car as well. Make sure to check your policies before you head to the counter so you know whether you need their insurance or not.

Don’t Ignore the Inspection

While you may be tempted to jump right in the vehicle and take off, take the time to do a thorough walk around to check for any type of damage. If you see even a small scratch, point it out to the employee so it can be noted. Failing to do this could result in you having to pay for damages that were already there when you took the car. If an employee isn’t walking around with you, take photos or a video with time and date stamps so you have proof the damage was there.

询问升级

When renting a car, you should consider reserving a vehicle a step down from what you actually want. When you arrive at the rental location, you can ask about upgrades. If the location is busy and inventory is low, you might just find you get a free upgrade to the vehicle you wanted in the first place.

租车并不一定要过于昂贵。小心遵循这些技巧将有助于确保您在回到城镇时不会注册更高的账单。
