Rental Car Rates

[PolynesianLily]

Hello -

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to ask this question but we have noticed that the rental car rates have doubled in price. Is there any reason for this?

It's a combination of less people renting, rental car companies maintaining smaller fleets and therefore charging more to try to make the same amount of money while renting less cars, and rental car companies hurting just like everyone else in the recession and therefore adding extra supplemental fees.
