car rental is more than hotel charge per day in some places.

$160/day at RSW for an suv.

Read an article (can't remember where) that people are renting UHauls to drive around Hawaii as they are much cheaper than rentals at the moment. I like the way people cowboy the situation. :-)

Not surprising with the chip shortage, it's not like they can ramp up their fleet quickly.

It takes a whole case of lysol to get the covids out. That's $72 right off the top.

I thought you guys in Michigan were under Gov. orders to stay at home permanently.
