Dave provides outstanding service...above and beyond!!! Thanks for making it so easy to keep coming back and for treating your customers so well~ read more

Dave saved my life! I was stranded with four kids and a mountain of gear when my engine blew. We were on our way to a long-anticipated trip to Tahoe. The kind folks at Autotronics gave me a ride to Dave's. Even though Dave's front desk rental person was not there, Dave worked hard to remember his system so that I could rent a car and get underway. Dave and Kyle were so sweet and worked to get me the right car. He had received a fleet of brand new Highlanders that afternoon and hadn't even set them all up for rental. I really needed a hitch for my bike rack and he and Kyle got it ready to rent for me. Not to mention, Dave has a huge, funny, and warm personality. I couldn't be more grateful. The car was gorgeous and he rented it to me at a very good price. The car was so luxurious. I wouldn't let the kids eat in that gorgeous car. Rent from Dave's - you won't be disappointed! read more

had an excellent experience with Dave. I wanted to pick up my girlfriend from the airport in something stylish and tour through Amador and see my parents. I was initially looking near the airport at hertz and enterprise for a convertible or something fun and was surprised to find that Dave's was far better price for a far better car, even with hertz having a AAA discount. I got the BMW 335 coupe with AWD for a very competitive price and couldn't be happier with all the details that made for an all around great experience, both with the car and with the service. examples were how the car was very clean and felt new (even with 30k). Dave went out of his way to be friendly and though I used a debit card only held reasonable deposit. my insurance transferred over so that kept costs down, and he didn't try to sell me anything else. I went over the mileage allowance and he didn't charge me much for it, and I even forgot to fill the tank before returning it and he charged me market value of the fuel (Hertz or enterprise would have reamed me, been there) was out the door fast and returning it was very quick. It was overall a very positive experience and would rent with Dave's again anytime. Now I want to buy that beamer, it ruined me for my own car :( read more

Great customer service. When enterprise refused to rent to us after 5+ prior years of renting from them, we took a chance and decided to try this place. The rates are comparable to other car rental places, but the customer service is amazing, the employee that helped us (Daniel) was very helpful and professional, he even helped us save some money when we went to return the car. I like renting from this place, they treat me like an actual human being! read more

I have rented from Dave's in the past and had a good experience. This time around was not so great. I called to reserve a cargo van to move some boxes out of my storage space and was quoted a rate of $63 per day for the weekend. To be fair to Dave's I did not check the contract that I signed, assuming the rate would be what was quoted. I was quite surprised when I returned the car and was charged $227 for the rental (not including the overage charge for mileage). I called Dave's and they were not at all helpful and claimed that they had quoted me the rate they charged. Please read your contract if you choose to rent from them. ----------------------------------------------- I am editing my review since Dave's contacted me and adjusted the price to the original quote. It turns out that the over charge was actually a mistake! Dave's Rent-A-Car is a great option with excellent service and- at the end of the day, fair prices! read more

Best sales experience ever! A friend referred me to Dave's since I was looking for a newer 4 runner and she saw they had a few. After researching the models I wanted and having a few unfavorable test drives at various Toyota dealerships I stopped by on a whim. Daniel greeted me and was incredible knowledgable about Toyotas. (Something that was lacking from other sales folks I was dealing with). He informed me they do trade-ins and he could do the financing through my bank. Talk about a speed of trust transaction. Everything was fair, strait forward and zero pressure, guess that's why they've been around for 20+ years. He said, take it for a few days as a rental. Great idea, I fell in love with it. The whole transaction took 1hr and I'm driving off in my new 2015 4runner Trail Premium...check these guys out you won't be sorry. read more

Always great service, personable, affordable. Daniel is the best for customer Service. I went to Tahoe in a Crossover & it was very affordable. read more

Dave saved my life!! My 14 year old car broke down yesterday and I NEEDED a car to get to work, the problem is I am only 19. Enterprise and Hertz wouldn't rent to me even with an AAA membership. Called Dave's after Everyone I work with recommended him, he got me a car no problems and I was in and out in like less than 10 minutes! I will totally rent from him again and Dave himself is a really nice and understanding gentleman. Thank you again! read more

Dave is a pretty chill dude, always takes care of me. Also, the girl that works there, Cali, I think it was, major chill and helpful, but definitely can't forget about the guy who pulled the car up for me and showed me a few things, Kyle, also chill as an ice cold iced tea on a hot day. Always will be back for more ! read more

I have to write and say what a wonderful business Dave's Rental Car is. We rented a van to drive to OR and they could not have been more professional and helpful . read more

So easy, so fast, so friendly. Will never use another rental car company again. Keep your business local!

Great place to rent a car from. Have rented from Dave's twice and been intensely satisfied each time. The guys (and girls) that work there are top notch, very friendly people. They will help you out! When I find myself in times of trouble, Dave's rent a car comes to me, Giving out great deals, let it be read more

OK I will never go anywhere else again this place is amazing I got the shaft from Hertz and then enterprise wasn't available to get me a car for another hour I called Dave's rent a car they came to pick me up to give me a brand new Toyota Rav and customer service that I've never received from any other rental companies they rock! They can also bill your insurance company direct! read more

Jim is great! I almost called him Dave in the review. My work needed a large van to haul a bunch of us between breweries for the day. He gave us a great rate and an awesome 12 passenger vehicle. We had a blast all night and returned the van with a little extra mileage, turns out even those rates are more than affordable. Everyone in the office is friendly and fun, and I look forward to renting from him again. My father has rented from Dave's for 20 plus years through Ponderosa High School for various ski trips and outings. I wish I would have tried out Dave's sooner! read more

It's been awhile but Dave's is the best from customer service to having the best cars we only use Dave's when we need a car thanks to everyone at Dave's even that guy Jim read more

Dave and his whole staff are awesome! I'm from the East Bay and I was stranded in Cameron Park over Labor Day weekend due to car issues. Dave had someone pick me up and bring me to his office and I was taken care of in less than 20 mins!! If I'm in the area again I would definitely use him again and refer him to my family and friends!! read more

I rent from Daves at least once a month to commute to San Jose. They have great service and great prices, they also rent RVs which I might take advantage of this summer! read more

We have rented from Dave's many times. They are local, friendly, competitively priced, and the vehicles are always well maintained and clean. What more could you possible want? Next year, I'm even going to check out the vans they have for sale - hoping for another great experience! read more

I live locally and needed a car as my daughter accidentally took my keys out of town. It was just closing time when I realized this... called Dave's, their price was reasonable and the young man waited past closing for me to get the vehicle. Everyone was nice, it was a great experience and I highly recommend them to anyone. read more

All I can say is this place is the only place I will ever buy a car from ever again. And I recommend anyone looking for a car who hates fighting with salesman and negotiating should go here. Daniel was super helpful and gave me a sweet deal, and it was a truly painless hassle free experience. Thanks Dave's Rent A Car! read more

I went to Dave's about a year ago after getting into quite an accident. Daniel spoke with me over the phone numerous times, made me feel absolutely at home, and was able to get me in a brand new car within minutes. I ended up buying the vehicle from Dave's because of the friendliness, outstanding level of knowledge, and overwhelming sense of care for my situation. Daniel was out for my best interest, not my money. By far, the most pleasant experience with anyone thus far when it comes to car issues. read more

I have been driving by Dave's Rent-A-Car for quite sometime, so I decided to stop in. I was in need of a new car, as mine had been in an accident. I will never go anywhere else to rent or buy a car again. Excellent service from the time you walk in. Amazing customer service. I will definitely be going back. Thank you Jim & Daniel for making this such a positive experience for me. Marsha S read more

So I ended up purchasing a 2014 Camry here at Dave's. I originally had been pre-approved through my bank. Daniel was able to get me a much better rate with a local credit union. So now I have an excellent car, at an excellent price, with an excellent rate, all done with excellent service. Why are you still buying cars at the dealer ? I never will buy at the dealership again. My car is almost new with no depreciation. Thanks Dave's ! read more

Needed a rental car for my wedding and wanted to stay local, Dave's rent a car was it, from the amazing staff, so nice, friendly, and helpful to the great prices and brand new car I rented it was so easy the whole process was a piece of cake no issues no problems. Thanks so much for being a great company I will definitely use you guys in the future and recommend you to all my family and friends!!!! read more

I have rented a large van, a camper trailer, and purchased a used vehicle from Dave's Rent-A-Car. Their vehicles are top quality, their prices reasonable, and the staff are very competent, friendly, and accommodating. I highly recommend! read more

No surprise that I already find 5 stars for Dave's! It was a fantastic experience from the beginning. The staff was pleasant and helpful, the process was efficient, and the car I got was brand new! I will go out of my way to work with them, again. read more

Outstanding, quick Customer Service!!! I rented a car from Dave's because my car needed some repairs. My insurance allowed for a certain amount per day for the car. I called and reserved a small car (Toyota Corolla), and when I arrived a couple of days later, the Corolla hadn't been returned yet so they let me rent a Toyota Rav 4 for the same price as the Corolla. They first told me that I may need to swap out the Rav 4 for the Corolla during the week. They first called me and asked me to make the switch and then decided to let me keep it for the whole week!!! Awesome service and super nice people. I will always rent from here and skip the giant rental companies. Thanks for the great customer service, Dave's!!! read more

We rented a Toyota Highlander for one day just to drive to Tahoe. The price was around $110 so it wasn't too high but when my husband turned in the vehicle the next day he was charged $37 for extra mileage (over 100 miles). He was never told about a mileage limit. He pays very close attention to all details and this was never mentioned when we called ahead of time over the phone and when he went to pick up the vehicle. read more

Don't rent from here. We rented a vehicle here and they charged us an extra cleaning fee for pet hair! We don't even own a pet! The manager said they have photos of pet hair in the truck from when we dropped it off! They wouldn't refund our money for the extra fee. Horrible customer service. read more

Rented a car from Dave's recently and was very impressed with their service. Daniel was super nice and easy to deal with and went out of his way to make the whole process seamless. Truthfully, I didn't price shop them, but I'm confident I got a fair deal. Our car was spotless and only a year or so old. Start to finish it was a great experience. Customer service the way it should be everywhere.......Thanks! read more

I wish I could give this company more than red stars on an app!!! I was recently rear ended and provided a car from them through the insurance of the person who rear ended me. I only had the pleasure of dealing with Daniel(AMAZING guy). Not only was there a smile on his face the entire time but he answered questions before they were able to even come out of my mouth, all while handling everything in a quick and more than thorough manner!!! I ended up having the car for a little over a month and as you can imagine acquired a hefty bill for the insurance to take care...you would think. Without telling me Nationwide instructed Dave's Rent-a-car to stick me with the rest of the bill. Which ended up being enough to let's just say get a room in Tahoe and maybe some spending money for drinks and gambling. I would give an exact amount but I don't want people to expect preferential treatment based off of a yelp review of someone they don't know. All in all Daniel, the same awesome guy I dealt with ended up talking to the owner and speaking on my behalf and got my bill ASTRONOMICALLY reduced!!! I can't thank Daniel AND Dave's enough for not only their impeccable service but also their tenacious effort to keep my best interests at the forefront of their minds. My family owns a house in Mexico and always rents cars to drive down and I know exactly where we will be renting from ALL the time from now on!!!! Thank you Daniel and Dave's Rent-a-Car in Cameron Park...forever grateful and indebted for your guys gracious work ethic!!! read more

I love Dave's! The staff was amazing Daniel and Cali were so sweet- personable- professional and kind! They got us the best deal and beat all other competitors prices. Very happy can't wait to drive this car around town! Thank you :) read more

My car broke down on Hwy 50 and I needed to a rental car to get to Tahoe. Dave's Rent-A-Car was great. The lobby is the nicest I've ever been in and the staff was incredibly efficient. No lines. No waiting. I was on the road in 10 mins and the return was just as quick. read more

I recently flew into Cameron Park and expected to Uber. The Uber driver called me and said I was too far away from his location and to try another driver. I could see this was not going to be fruitful. I search for a car rental locations and found Dave's. I was in a tremendous hurry and they accommodated me to the point where I was driving a impeccably clean Honda within seven minutes to my appointment. Amazing! read more

I can't say enough good things about Dave's on both the rental and purchase side. I've rented several times and my experience has always been consistent. Friendly staff, clean/new cars and in and out in minutes. This last time I rented I mentioned that I was considering purchasing a Toyota RAV4. Long story short I bought it from Dave's. I would have bought a new car a year ago if I knew it was going to be such a nice experience. Jim and Daniel are so genuine. It's just an extra bonus that you are also supporting a local small business. Thank you Jim and Daniel. I LOVE my new RAV. read more

I've been renting Car's from Dave's for years now and you will not find a better deal, better customer service, or better cars anywhere else. I'm done with the large corporate company's, Dave's has the small town family feel and service that is always a pleasure to experience. I highly recommend them. read more

What a pleasure to do business with Dave's! It's all because of the great attitude and service we received from Daniel at the front desk! What a great guy. He treated us like friends and made the whole experience fun and easy. We will be back. Thanks a bunch. read more

Love Dave's ... I showed up yesterday, the second time in a month, to rent a car while my beater (driven by my high school senior son) is being diagnosed with a probably-fatal condition. I got there 10 minutes before closing, no reservation, and I was out the door in six minutes. Terrific service, friendly, knowledgable ... and extra credit because both the young folks at the front desk are Ponderosa HS grads ... :) read more

Awesome place; best kept secret in today's car rental industry. I was very surprised and pleased at how easy it was to rent a vehicle (including a last minute change I needed to make to vehicle type), and how different (for the better) they are from everyone else. I decided to try them last week because basically I've tried everyone else and knew from past experience what I would be getting. With the other places it was all a matter of how many changes to my trip I'd have to make and how far out of my way I'd have to go as a result of doing business with them, as well as how much I'd have to risk with some of them like Enterprise who will proactively search for opportunities to screw you over. I didn't want to go through all the crap you have to deal with from the other car rental places, and was very pleased with what I found with Dave's Rent-A-Car. This is my place for now on/ hands down. For you guys (and gal) who works there: good job you've earned a new and loyal customer! read more

These guys are great. We rented a car to bring a friend home from the hospital after spinal surgery, our car was too high for him to get into. The experience with Daves was so good we rented another car to take a trip to Fresno, didn't want to put the miles on my car. Great people here, you can't beat the service, or prices. I like dealing with real people, an independent company not a cookie cutter corporate place. I highly recommend Daves to all my friends. read more
