I had picked it up in the city at HLE, and made a detour to swap it out at PIT. Got a worse car (HHR, ugh) but it was old enough that it had new tires, so stuck with it. Rain stopped about an hour later while still driving and no rain the next day. Then I had to complain about the fuel and service fee they added while at PIT; got it refunded and got a $25 coupon, but annoying.
HHR Rentals are pretty bad. I might have kept the bald tires
