I have rented Hondas in PHX a couple of times, but the last time was probably also 2007. I had a Hyundai once when I was either SelectPreferred or AvisFirst, and I hated it, so I have never accepted or chosen one again. I understand they are much improved now, but now that I am Chairman's, why take a Hyundai when I can have almost any car on the lot?

And don't get me started on the Yaris that I've seen around a few times.
I would not touch a Toyota right now with YOUR 10 foot pole! They have been going seriously downhill for at least two or three years, with the possible exception of the Camry reintroduction, and even that was not any more than a one run home run.

Accent on the WAS! I told you that you should give a serious look at the 2010 Buick LaCrosse! As a matter of fact, you should take a good look at any Buick, they are all very good, just that the LaCrosse is outstanding!
