I dont post threads about myself usually because that is rather self aggrandizing but I dont think Ive looked more forward to my birthday in a LONG time...

Happy 27th birthday, BJ. And you're finally celebrating this one as an LU alumnus!

once you're 25 and can rent a car, I don't know why anybody would look forward to a birthday. And even that's not important enough to be happy about being 1 year closer to old.

You can rent a car at 21. Some places will charge some underage fee but no one is going to turn you down just because youre 22.

Wrong, I was 23 and they turned me down.

Happy birthday BJ.

Back in the day, 25 or older was a hard and fast rule for renting a car, but they seem to have relaxed that somewhat. I think you will find it depends on the vendor and what kind of credit card you have.

I havent heard of someone getting turned down in the last two years because of their age(21-25) and with the car rental business slowing down it wont happen.

I did have to explain to someone that a person under 21 without a license cant rent a car. Apparently some genius decided he could rent a car with an ebrake in the middle so his 16 year old daughter could take her drivers test.

On a side note, if you ever rent a car some places are holding $400 over the expected rental amount on your card if its a debit card. Lots of customers have issues with that, especially when planning a vacation.
