Also, I'm a total noob when it comes to the car programs so I just realized my United 1K gets me President's Circle status, which I just registered for. I was thinking of sticking with Hertz rewards and the 25% bonus we receive, unless there is a better points value from using United or Marriott as reward options...I will be renting for personal use sometimes so it's useful for me to accumulate Hertz points, I think.

As far as SLC goes, it's an Ultimate Choice location so you just reserve an intermediate car (or above) and you can pick from the section that corresponds to your status level.
Thank you very much for your reply! So I guess it doesn't matter in my case how many rental periods I have, if I've achieved the highest status level. If I lost my United 1K status then it would be down to how many rental periods I had...but my status will be good until Feb 2020, so I guess I have to worry about this in 2019 (or 2020?).
