Well, this program is a joke Avis pulled on its most frequent customers.

If you read the Wiki a little carefully (and I just edited to make it more obvious), the 300ish points were to ADD GPS, not the base rental....and I think the point required is PER DAY.

It is made worse by Avis keeping the percentage based taxes even though the rental is free and any % of 0 should be 0.
