I do the math generally and on rare occasions will take Hertz points. I use a pretty mathematical approach and value Hertz points at $.08 each.

For my part, I value an Airtran credit at $18.90 but feel that's maybe just a bit high so 1.5 credits amounts to a $28.35 rebate.

Unless I have an unexpectedly high cost rental and no promo such as 3x Hertz that I can apply, I choose FF miles despite the costs.
