American Travels
January 19, 2006 Shanghai Pudong MU583 flight 10:20 arrive in Los Angeles, flew more than 10 hours is very tired, but with immigration to the United States three months to knock on my passport stamped and I-94 on the card, and my heart a lot of pleasure. Grab luggage out of the airport gate. Run out in front of the Hertz Gold and Shanghai license notary, notary in Shanghai I spent 400 yuan, after looking at this notary no use. Airport car rental companies have a free direct shuttle to a very advanced car rental companies, there AVIS, Hertz, Budget, etc. Recommended to go abroad to check the website http://www.kayak.com/?tab=cars up the cheapest car rental companies, and book the car, the cheaper the earlier order. Enter the "LAX" --- LA airport car rental locations referred to in place. I compared the prices go up, Budget cheapest, automatic transmission Elantra 27 dollars / day, we must add another third-party liability insurance, as well as an insurance against damage and loss to see you, and if you are not afraid of crashing you do not Pay 9 dollars a day that broke the insurance. I was all be on the final 45 dollars a day, for the first time in the United States did not dare to drive recklessly. U.S. car rental companies give you the car when the tank is full when you return the car must be filled, otherwise he has to calculate the cost of expensive in the United States is such that labor costs are expensive! When you are dissatisfied with the car, he will have to send someone to fill up so that the next person to drive away. Procedure is very simple, domestic China Merchants Bank credit Carla about, passport and driver's license on their computers to register it, you can get the car keys to see the car. Remind you to carefully check the condition, immediately say if the car has a problem, otherwise if you do not have car damage insurance, you bear the consequences of it. Open the car off. America Freeway is very wide, one-way has 6-8 lanes, speed very quickly. At first it does not really familiar with the road, do not easily change lanes. In LA there 105,10,60,57,605 other numerous highway. I went to Rowland Heights, on the 105, turn 605, sub-60, exit is down to Nogales. All the way through, the speed at 70-80 miles, 1 mile = 1.6 km. Driving out in front of the first promising route is very important, usually go fast, easy go, even if wrong, it is easy to find the entry you want to go, and their signs are very clear, do not worry about getting lost can not go home. Proposal put bottles of water in the car, so easy to drink. Are generally free parking in shopping mall entrance, very large parking lot. Many gas stations, just looking for a price are the same, but be aware that fuel is yourself. You can swipe, I'm afraid there is a risk, or choose to pay in cash. I heard someone swipe before refueling, no cancellation button after clearing away for free to the people behind Canada, the oil filling stations plus the light to stop! It may be tens of thousands of dollars. Pay cash to the cashier here is to first pay a deposit, usually 20 to 30 on the can, and then take your own car to add oil gun, gun oil before adding the next support bracket push up, or get out of oil. Fill will automatically stop, put away, and then wants to get back to your balance. Fill up the car run out, time to remind everyone not to exceed one hour, or add the money might as well re-open one day. They are the computer out of the bill, there is no room for bargaining, you find a thousand reasons to no avail.
