I've used them. They're called Eki Rent-a-Car. When I used them, I thought they were good. Nice newish car with up-to-date Navi. But, as I became more concerned about fine-print stuff over the past year or two, I noticed last year when I was considering them that their insurance coverage is quite inadequate compared to legacy agencies.
