San Francisco to Las Vegas

Picking up and returning the car was super easy. It was my first time driving by myself and basic English was enough to handle everything.

Just like the guide suggested, we were advised to upgrade the vehicle. They said my husband is tall and should upgrade to a more spacious car. We insisted on not upgrading, then they said we didn't buy the roadside assistance insurance and would have to bear the costs if anything happened. I told them we did purchase the roadside assistance insurance and showed a passage from our insurance policy. She said she didn't understand why we would buy insurance in China for renting their car. We persisted in not buying their insurance. Later we found out our car was actually quite nice, a Nissan Versa with plenty of space. A nearby staff member, who was African American, even made fun of us, but I retorted in English, making her feel embarrassed.

It was alright, nothing special.

They kept telling me that the insurance I bought in China was useless and insisted I buy their insurance. When I asked about the available miniVAN models, they said they didn't know. Their attitude was quite average. Then they recommended that I upgrade to a Sienna. Actually, for four of us with two kids, plus three small suitcases and two medium-sized ones, it all fit. Later, communication with a Chinese staff member was better.
