Upgrade choice

We have a Tahoe ready for collection, but as driving is my treat while on holiday I have the chance of upgrading to the Lincoln Navigator

Is it worth the upgrade?

Depends on the money, but a superior vehicle. Cadillac Escalade would be a great one if you could get it.

We had a Lincoln Navigator last time as an upgrade, and it was a lovely car but we worried about anything happening to it as some things were not covered on the package, so our excess 💰💰💰 was much greater if anything went wrong. The best thing was we filled it up for �30 which we laughed about would have been about �150 a home to fill the tank . This time we are going back to a people carrier, as they just seem to sit in car parks most of our trip 😀

But there�s no excess on rental cars in Florida if you have the fully inc. package. Were you in another state.

No if we damaged the windscreen or needed a tyre we would have had to pay for them which obviously on a lincoln is more than on a people carrier

But that�s not an insurance excess, which confused me. You can protect yourself by buying Additional Roadside Assistance, which covers loss of keys, glass cover, and tyre cover.
As it�s optional I never take it and in twenty odd years of renting in USA never needed it ( oh dear, I�ve fated that now...bet I�ll burst a tyre next trip now I�ve mentioned it

)
Is that what you had?

When we were out in October my son had the GMC Yukon and I had a Cadillac Escalade long wheel base. They were similar other than the Escalade was quicker, a lot larger inside and had more bells and whistles inside. Parking assist, cameras, better radio and climate control etc. Depending upon the cost I would go for it. We paid exactly the same when we went as I got the Luxury SUV for �700 for 2 weeks, too good a deal to not go for. At Alamo they had numerous Navigators, an Infiniti and one Escalade. I went for the Escalade as it is faster I preferred it from write ups I had read to the others.
