It turns out, the FLorida AWD does NOT allow you to earn miles, status or coupons!
My agent switched me to the Costco AWD. Does anyone have a REALLY good back up AWD?
You are lucky. When I called for the direction for the Avis near my home, the agent actually asked me to bring the State of Florida ID when I come to pick up the car. Needless to say I did not go there. I had a backup reservation with Budget - it was just a one-way rental from town to airport for a 2week trip.
