Have you looked into one of those car rental websites? You can probably get one for less than $15/day.

yeah, my boss just mentioned it to me which is why I made the thread. I wasn't even thinking about that.

Do you know anyone with an extra car? Like pickup or anything?

wish I knew someone with an extra car!! my sister will loan me her car but I have so many things to do during the day that I just feel horrible inconveniencing people so much.

well, first of all, glad you are okay.

i've always used hertz for my business travel. i use them at least once a month and have never had a significant issue or complaint. definitely check your insurance policy to see if you're paying for rental car coverage like catfang mentioned. in my experience, enterprise and hertz generally offer the best rates but it certainly varies by location and fleet. you can use a site like priceline to compare. here's a comparison for various charlotte locations. hertz and enterprise appear to be the cheapest, at least for the parameters that I set (one week rental starting tomorrow).

thanks buddy :)

biscuit mentioned taking someone to the dealership with me to make sure they won't rip me off since I don't know poo about cars.

Also, I can't be stealing cars with all my outstanding warrants ;)

le sigh.

Comparing prices, it looks like Hertz through AAA is going to be cheapest

Economy car for 1 week+ taxes and fees

Hertz: $164

Avis: $203

Thrifty: $179

Enterprise: $174

Only thing is I am 24, will be 25 next month, which means they will charge me an additional fee wherever I go. Maybe I can see if my mom can "rent the car" and let me drive it.

      Passing yards per game leaders

      I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...

      Would you trade Ickey

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
