Overpriced Car Rentals at KCI Airport

    When I go home to Rossville,  I have always flown into KCI and rented a car right there.  This week,  when I priced a car rental,  the best price I could get for a compact car was $377.64 (including a whole list of misc. charges) for one week at Enterprise which seemed absurdly high (and more than my round trip ticket from Baltimore).  I checked to see what other car rental agencies were in the KCI area, but found that most were close to downtown KC.   However,  I did find one not far at all from KCI.  The Enterprise agency on Prairie View Rd. just south of the airport gave me a price of $157.23 total for the same car for the same days.  That is a difference of  $220.41.
    A taxi to and from the airport will add another $40 to the total,  but that is still about half price.
    If you or a friend plans to rent a car at KCI,  think twice about it.
