Agreed. When I took my family to Kona on vacation I booked a minivan at around $200/day (I used my free days on that one obviously). I noticed my corporate rate for a full-size SUV during the same time period was only $35/day
I used the full-size SUV as comparison because it's an even more expensive class than a minivan, which isn't available under my corporate contract.
