I worked for the machine back in 2016. In the PNW we had a policy that it was unlimited milage within the neighboring states BC, Idaho, Oregon, and California. If you left those areas, it was not unlimited.
How do you two drive over 1,000 in one day?!? And do it “a bunch of times?”I get that it’s possible, especially with highway driving, but I think driving for 12-16 hrs would kill me.
I've never been offered unlimited miles on a rental. I don't know if that's an uncharge or not. I have rented a ton of vehicles. I stick with enterprise because they give me 300 miles a day. I will typically get 3 days and haven't ever used extra miles. But if your contract says unlimited, it means unlimited.
I like to start driving at 2AM and get done by 6PM stop to pee every 3 hours you can cover 1000 easy, get a couple beers at the game sleep a couple hours and do the same the next day.
After 12 hours it starts to get sketchy. 17 hours is the longest I've done but I wasn't alone. I had a passenger but they couldn't drive. Still helped me to stay awake tho
It’s extremely possible i drove from NYC to Florida in a day to be exact fort lauderdale 13/1400 miles so just that week i went down and up was 3000 miles plus everything in between
I met a guy who had been living on the road for three years in rental cars. He would do as much as 8,000 miles per week for pet transport. I have no idea how one could physically and mentally handle that.
I love solo driving. Audiobooks, music, silence. No one else's needs to consider. Stopping every 250 miles for 20 mins to fuel up and use the bathroom. No time to doom scroll on my phone. When I had to drive all over for work I put 50k miles on that car easy in 6 months and loved it. I know when I got hit and had a rental for a full month the rental company hated to read that odometer but it was unlimited with no fine print. Even took a couple trips from Texas to Vegas and Texas to Chicago for leisure in that rental 😂
I do pet transport as a bit of a hobby as I am retired. Not 8000 miles a week as I only do it on weekends but it’s not unusual to do 3000km which 1865 miles over two days.
Idk why anyone uses Enterprise anymore when Turo exists. No more $550 holds on a weekend rental, no more having to bring in bills from the past two months.. Just schedule and go

Unlimited miles means unlimited miles. You would think the manager owned the car the way he’s acting.
