RENTING A CAR

Dug: Good afternoon. U-Drive-It rentals. May I help you?

Man: Hi, I'm interested in renting a car for the weekend and I want to

know if you have a special weekend rate. Dug: Yes, we do. What sort of car are you interested in? Man: Well, we're a family of three and we have camping equipment. I'm used to driving a small car, but this time I need something larger because of the family and the equipment. Dug: You can take a station wagon. Our cars are good models and have automatic transmissions. When will you be interested in renting the car?

Man: Well, we are leaving on Friday, July the 7th, and we'll return on Monday, that'll be the 10th. When do we have to pick up and re­turn the car to get that special weekend rent?

Dug: For the weekend rate you'll have to pick up the car after four o'clock on Friday afternoon and then return by ten o'clock on Monday morning.

Man: After 4 on Friday and return by 10 on Monday. Okay. What will be the price for that?

Dug: Well, our regular rate is $79.95, but for those special weekend rates you'll get it for $59.95.

Man: Aha, that is $59.95. Does it include insurance?

Dag: No, the insurance is 10 dollars more. But I really recommend it. Our rent is still the lowest in town.

Man: Well. I'd like to think about it. I'll call you back.

Dug: Sure. That's fine. Listen, when you call back, ask for Dug, that's me.

Man: Good bye.

Dug: Take care.
