I use Budget when it is a company owned location. Budget has better prices and if you join their "FastBreak" you can speed by the counter. I have had issues with Franchise locations so if you call them be sure to ask.
Budget is good about damage claims. My rental, black crown victoria, got dinged badly in the rear passenger door by a truck door. I guess they thought I was an undercover officer or worse. Budget sent me all the forms needed and Visa Signature is taking care of the charge.
Budget is owned by AVIS so you can't go wrong and you will save a few dollars.
