Hi,
I've booked a Sixt car rental for next summers trip to Florida using USrentacar - I'm flying in and out of MIA and been told there are sections of the highway on the way to Orlando that are auto-collect tolls only.
When I look into Sixt's policy they say you can arrange to use the electronic system by paying a prepaid toll that is $6.99/day with a maximum charge of $36.99/ week - which is over $100 for my 3 week stay. If purchased it has to activated for the entire trip. Or they suggest to not use this system and be charged a $5 penalty fee + toll for each auto toll booth used.
I'm not keen on either of these - my other alternative is to use one of the transponder systems that are available - mini-sticker or portable that start at $4.99+ tolls which will be about $70 cheaper.
Has anyone got any experience of buying the sun pass system locally after arriving in Miami or getting one in the UK and how did they find it?
Thanks
Scott
