Rustyr,
Did they make you pay the higher Sequoia rate?

I also see your logic on the p/u trucks. Several coworkers got them as rentals and have had no problems. However, I reminded them that they shouldn't take them in the future because they could have 3/4 people headed back to the airport and they'd all have wet luggage if it rained that day. And if it's not 4x4, they're horrible in the rain/snow because there is no weight over the rear axle.
