Looked up renting a car for pick up in Bodo and drop off in Narvik for 3, yes, 3 days only. Price: $775 U.S.!! The drop off fee is ridiculous. Our plans were to take Hurtigruten to Bodo, car travel in Lofoten Islands and return the car to Narvik to get the overnight train to Stockholm.
I know we did not pay that much back in 2009, but it was from a major town (Bergen) to a major town (Trondheim). Kemwel was on the face of it cheaper than AutoEurope, but Kemwel's agency would charge a one way fee that would have made the total of that rental more expensive.
At $200/day that's $600 for 3 days, but that's without certain taxes, I believe. Anyway, I could buy a used car for that amount (in the U.S.) that would work for at least a week. And I've heard gas is pretty high too even though Norway produces so much of it. So, I guess we'll have to think differently as far as getting around. That's now IF we go.
