Avis First is simply a free day certificate program (for those who don't collect real miles or points on the rentals, that is) on top of Avis Preferred. Given that, how much do you expect them to do???
Hertz Gold (or whatever they're calling it this week) is no better (unless you like their points better than Avis' free certificates, that is; but you still have to give up collecting real miles or points on rentals).
Who do you expect to be so much better???

You're renting in the "wrong" places. Rent at
Select & Go locations, and you get to pick your own car (out of a varied selection).
(If you're renting mostly at smaller locations that don't have Select & Go, those same smaller locations presumably don't have the equilvalent "select your own car" features at the other rental companies either.)
