In my experience rate was same as whatever current refuel charge National was offering. That is the rate they charge renters for gas per gallon if they don't bring vehicle back with correct amount of fuel.

Since almost always get fuel outside of Manhattan before returning vehicles there often can end up ahead of game.

Gas in NJ or some other areas outside of Manhattan (or much of NYC for that matter) is considerably cheaper than within. Since National's NYC locations base their refueling charges on local rates.....

Again this is often why so many renting (IMHO) from NYC (at least) locations get dinged with fuel gauges that move off "F" to 7/8ths or bit less with just driving a half mile or so out of location. Previous renter likely filled up in NJ or someplace outside of city before returning. Then they drove carefully enough so when fuel meter is read it says "F", but that won't last long.

IIRC there was a thread or mentioned somewhere in group that Enterprise is now using some funky electronics or whatever to determine how much fuel actually is in tank.
