Basically yes but some sharper locations may put the upgraded car into the category itself and not in ES. Or even in Premier Selection.

Archived the '13 RR, so that most recent ones are '14-15.

Thank you for all your work - 13s are basically gone - and 15s are showing up.

You're welcome! I encourage everyone to submit RRs for all the '13 cars that have been archived.

I rented a Toyota Avalon, brand new with 4K miles, leather interior, and a superb sound system and drove it from Asheville to Charlotte Raceway, around and return and it was a joy to drive and got incredible gas mileage. I am afraid to say how much because no one will believe me. 9 gallons of gas.

Hi thanks for the great report on the cars.

i am looking for rental in Tampa Airport next month. the Buick Lacrosse is showing up as a Luxury on Dollar and Thrifty. Does Enterprise carry this beast on their LCAR list? Gosh i am praying they don't.....

I wish all the 2013's were gone. Lately I've seen some high mileage vehicles working there way into the system.

Saw a 2012 Kia Optima Hybrid with 36000 miles and a 2013 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid with 33000 miles the other day at LAS!

27 mpg? I see no reason not to believe that. My 15 year old BMW would have done 29-30 mpg.

Now they we have a MOD, would it be possible to have my '15 Lacrosse added to the master list? Also would it be possible to establish some guidelines for when to create a new thread as opposed to when to use an existing thread? New year is a new thread. How about hybrid or convertible? Different trim?

For National, the Lacrosse is a PCAR that's usually available on Executive.

According to the Facebook (which doesn't even show up anymore) he was "retiring" from writing reviews I guess the domain expired. Too bad, it was an incredible source of info.
