It's a shame, because I love my Accord, and would love to have it as a regular rental option. Of course, there's also a somewhat direct correlation between what's selling to consumers and what's available in large numbers in rental fleets — what's selling well generally isn't found in large number in rental fleets, and what's not selling is usually making up the vast majority of rental fleets. Hence, the enormous numbers of GMs and Chryslers in rental fleets these days.
