Thrifty Car Rental Special car scam Indianapolis Indiana

 I booked a car rental through Hotwire, I choose the "Special Car " from Thrifty Car Rental, the car was priced like a compact but not a compact.  when I arrived in Indianapolis to get my "Car" they wanted to give me a truck. I told them I wanted a car and not a truck.  They told me a truck is price higher then a compact so this is what I get. By definition, a truck is not a car.  The special car was to hold four passengers plus luggage.  I could fit the passengers but my luggage was going to be expose to the weather as it would have been placed in the bed of the truck also exposing it to theft as we stopped for dinner. 

Now my only option was to upgrade to another car. Now they had me at a disadvantage.  I gave in and paid for an upgrade.  When I went to check out my car prior to leaving the terminal the attendent told me that I was the fourth person today that they did this to, he went on to say that one customer actually said he would take the truck at whick time he was offered a discount Not to take the truck.  I am in the process of trying to get the corporate office address for Hotwire and Thrifty Car Rental to file a complaint with the Massachusetts Attorney General
