My experience is that the answer varies by location. Not any faster at DFW. Faster in DEN. Recently, MCI has really picked it up and now is much faster.

Sorry, never rented at PHL.

Until they completely get rid of having to go to the counter, it'll never be as good as Emerald Aisle. But I rent from Dollar all the time because of the difference in price, even when someone else is paying.
