6. AutoSlash: Best Car Rental Deals
Odds are, you’d love to get the best price possible on your next rental (if not, we must be from different planets).
AutoSlash works a little differently from most other sites on this list. First, you enter your trip information, and then they ask you to enter a bunch of other information to see if they can find any deals. You put in your credit card type, any memberships you have (like AAA or Costco), and frequent flier programs you’re a part of.
Instead of instantly displaying a search engine page with rental options, AutoSlash sends you an email to view your search results. I’ve found it typically takes less than 5 minutes to get the email.

With this unique deal-finding system, I’ve found that AutoSlash often gives me the best price (though not 100% of the time).
Once you get your email, you can book your rental directly through AutoSlash. They have options to pay now or pay at pickup. Paying now typically gets you a lower price, and they still offer free cancellation up until 48 hours before your pickup time.
Is it less convenient? Sure. I don’t love that they have to send you an email for your quote. Still, AutoSlash is worth checking out if you’re looking for discounts.
