I’m from out of town and I’ve had an accident needing a rental car. They want $500 deposit a major credit card and this is all through insurance not to mention the rude staff. I would never do this with thrifty ever again and if I could give him less than one star I would.

Our car broke down last Friday in the very small town of Oshkosh, NE while we were on our way to Colorado Springs. It was over 100 degrees, and I was honestly nervous about having my family spend the night in a small roadside motel. I called multiple rental companies with no luck—no cars available until Monday. But then I reached Charles at Thrifty North Platte. He was the only one who responded and made it possible for us to get a rental car, even though we were 1.5 hours away and he was close to closing. His kindness and quick action meant everything in that moment. Huge kudos as well to Gary, the amazing mechanic in Oshkosh, who not only helped with the car but also drove us all the way to North Platte so we could pick up the rental. We’re incredibly grateful for both Charles and Gary—

Got a rental from them this past weekend for a short vacation up to the Black Hills. Great people! Car was in excellent shape, very very clean. Chris and Dylan are the best! Would highly recommend if you need a rental car in North Platte. Thank y’all so much!

They dont use insurance so you need your own. Kinda beats the purpose of rentals but that's just me.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Arwen Arnold · Jan 2023

Got stuck in Colorado right on the border to Nebraska for a family trip, myself and my 3 kids. Was told I would be able to rent from them so I got and paid for a ride to the airport where they were located. Upon my arrival I was told I would not be able to be rented to. I explained I was stranded and that now I was stranded even farther away with no hope to get myself and children to our destination. I was very rudely greeted by a woman sitting at the counter of the business and told to get a taxi if I didn’t have a ride back. She was so disrespectful in her job I’m not sure how they employed her. The other young man who looked like they got him from a dark alley in a bad side of New York was no more helpful as he just looked dumbfounded and barely said anything. I will NEVER rent from her
