Rick Caruso family history

He comes from a very respectable family. His father, Henry Caruso entered the automobile industry by purchasing a number of new car dealerships from General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler.

In the early days of television, he virtually monopolized the commercial television airwaves in Los Angeles with his radio and TV singing commercials, billed as “H.J. Caruso—the greatest.”

In 1966, he established Dollar Rent-A-Car as Dollar A Day Rent A Car. He was determined to open lucrative airport locations after opening five locations; however, the big three car rental companies, Hertz, Avis, and National, had already established locations in airports, making it difficult for the new company to enter the market.
