I have a recurring monthly rental with National so I head to Skyharbor quite a bit. I've been told Saturday morning is best time to get a good selection, but I assume Friday with many travelers heading home should be a good time as well. Unfortunately most of what I find on the lot are Mureno's and Hyundai SUV's. I have seen some Wranglers as well as larger pickups (I thought Dodge, but maybe Nissan) down there that I think were 4wd. It's kind of hit or miss though.

I used to love grabbing a Jeep Grand Cherokee from them, but they were recalled and now few and far between.
