Re: QuickSilver Questions...

Gypsy:

When we last went in May, we had the honor of not only using Quicksilver, but it was Gregory himself that picked us up at the airport.

Let me tell you that Gregory is an A+ guy. His cars are spotless and the service is great. Quicksilver's "honor policy" is one of the most admirable things I've seen in business lately. He doesn't ask for a credit card up front and doesn't have any cancellation fees, he only asks that you respond in kind and give him fair notice if you do need to cancel/reschedule.

On the trip back, the driver that picked us up was actually about 20 minutes early and the car was equipped with a DVD, so DW and the kids were able to watch about 25 minutes of Finding Nemo in the backseat. The Surround Sound quality was awesome. Even though I couldn't see the movie from the front, I still felt like I could imagine everything that was going on.

Gregory and his team certainly make the trip feel luxurious, so I really wouldn't worry about the "potential" limo upgrade. Honestly, I find it hard to believe that Happy Limo would upgrade that often. If word got out that it were actually true, they'd be shooting themselves in the foot, because then no one would actually order a limo, even though that's what they wanted. Maintenance on a limo is significantly more than a standard sedan. Regular free upgrades can really cost a company money.

I say go with Gregory and Quicksilver. They are a terrific organization.
