help me with car choice please

at the minute i have a car booked with Avis which says

Chevrolet Surburban 7 Pax Premium or similar
price seems really good at 315 pounds for a weeks rental

checking online i can get for a much cheaper price with Avis for a Ford Explorer 7 Pax / Ford Expedition EL

either a Ford Expedition 7 Pax with Alamo

or a Nissan Pathfinder 7 seater or a GMC Yukon with Hertz

we are for the most 3 adults but occasionally there will be 5 adults in the car

i would value opinions please

I ended up with a Pathfinder a couple of years ago and never again.

OP. The price is ok for your original booking but there will be cheaper options out there as you have already found.

Personally I would switch it but bear in mind you wont know with any booking what you will get until you are in the garage. So your Suburban could be something else entirely. The same with a Yukon etc

this is my thinking also

i might not get a Surburban with Avis and they don't let you chose from a row, i might get the Expedition which i cna also get from Alamo where i will get the chose and if i change now saves me seventy pounds

what do you think ?

One word - change!

£70 is a fair bit of cash in my book. Not to be sneezed at.
