Dollar Manager's Special

[Kentucky]

Someone has already some experinece with the Dollar Manager`s Special? With which models can I get when I book this special? I think that the Manager`s Special is a comparable category to the different mystery cars of other car rental companies. I would like to try it for the first time but I don´t know whether it`s worth the money. Thanks in advance for your opinions!

The rental rate depends on the location and time. I have added an example for Philadelphia airport where the rate is identical with the Economy, Compact and Mid-Size class. But by experience you have a real chance to get also something out of Standard or Full-Size class. This is not possible if you book one of the first three categories. The guarantee is Compact or larger.

Think the rental rates for a Mystery Car from Budget
are even lower than for a Manager's Special from Dollar.

But by experience you have the chance to get also an Impala from Dollar rent a car for a booked Manager`s Special. This justifies some dollars more.

Actually Dollar is advertising rental cars for the summer holidays. They obviously are already planning a life and business after a period of Covid-19.
Let's hope for the best that Dollar is right.

Hello friends!

As a newcomer I would like to state first of all that the Manager`s Special from Dollar is for me in future an absolute nogo. I`ve tried it once and I`ve got a Compact Class car in form of a Nissan versa. This is not what I was looking for. From now on I`ll book for a few dollars more minimum Full-Size class. Then it is guaranteed to get a much better car without any risk.

It's simply the wrong name. A Manager's Special which never can be really attractive for real managers makes no sense. What have the marketing guys of Dollar rent a car thought when they have invented this category? I don't think that a real answer exists.

Thanks for reporting this experience. I confirm that a Full Size booking will guarantee better cars.
