Big to-do this AM on my NPR (or was it RteS? BBC?) site whining about googles new released version of search killing/burying anything not to the advantage of google. Apparently if you drill down a page or five, the results become more relevant.

Alternatively, back when there was Avis, hertz, budget you could obtain loss rates because they were drumming up activity. And unsurprisingly, they would come back empty of fuel which was refueled at 3-4 times the local rate.

No more competitive agencies, no need for enticing rates. When I just got back from Europe, there was only one car rental desk but with hertz and budget uniforms. A lot of uber and lyft cars in the pickup atea, however.
