Don't Buy Gas From the Rental Car Company

On our last trip to the Eastern Seaboard in early October, we rented a car. We got outstanding service from Avis. In fact, we liked the car so much we're considering buying one when we make our next vehicle purchase. The pilot took care of all the arrangements. The friendly person behind the counter asked him about taking care of his gas so he wouldn't be so inconvenienced when he returns. The pilot inquired about gas and thought he was getting a great deal. This was when gas was the highest EVER. Georgia had some of the highest prices in the country at the time, so the gas price he got looked very good. Well, as we drove along we were totally shocked at the low gas prices. Georgia has taxed gas so highly that it remains fairly high compared to other states. Lesson learned-no more gas from the rental car company.
