How to get the car I want on Priceline.com?

Question

I found decent prices for a car rentals thru Budget rent a car on Priceline - but it doesn't give me the large SUV as an option even tho they ARE available through Budget.

I don't want to pay $1300-1400 for 2 wksthru Budget - I want the deal thru Priceline. Is there a way to get the Priceline cost w/ the car you WANT?

Answer 1

You can't guarantee getting a specific car.  You name the price you want for, say, a full sized car.  If it's accepted, Priceline will tell you what company you got the deal with.

Even if you reserve a car through a specific, you're not guaranteed to get a specific model.  If you look at their sites, you'll see that for a certain class of car, it will show you one model of car and then say that you get that car "or similar".
