3) Which SUV has the XM options?

Thank you
1. Standard SUV is slightly larger. Budget.com lists standard as Edge while the Intermediate is an Escape. In most locations, Avis & Budget share a fleet. Over in the Avis forum, I have a list of (mostly) current vehicles by class so you can see the differences.
2. I don't use Budget, so I can't honestly answer. However, if they don't have what you rented and still charge you a cancellation fee, you shouldn't have any problems disputing it with your credit card.
3. Depends. Most new vehicles come with XM, but they are only active for a short period so only the newest/lowest mileage vehicles will still have it active.
