Budget vs Thrifty-- Which do you prefer? (renting tomorrow!)

[zilp]

I am renting a minivan tomorrow. I have similar rates with both Budget and Thrifty. Is there a benefit of one over the other?

great, thanks for the info! I wasn't aware of the free driver perk.

I prefer Thrifty. I like to choose my own car rather than being assigned to one (which did happen when I rented with Budget). DH doesn't like to drive in unfamiliar places so he won't drive on vacation
