Picked up mid-day on Monday. Both Emerald and Executive sections were relatively full, though not too exciting.

Emerald was pretty much your choice of Toyota Camry LE. Executive was your choice of Toyota RAV4 LE.

On the Executive side, there were a few highlights. There was an Audi A3 among the Pacifica minivans. In the corner was a Genesis G80. And right before I left, a brand new Mazda CX-90 just pulled up.

I had a Luxury reservation, but was pretty much told to pick the A3 or 300 from the Executive stalls. I think the agent would have given me a Q5, if I asked. However, I decided I wanted to take the G80 from Executive and the agent looked a bit surprised and said, "Go ahead." It was a 2021 base model with over 22K on the odometer and a little beat up. It was likely sourced from a local Genesis dealership, as it had a special plate for the Hawaii safety sticker on the back (vs. being stuck directly on the bumper).

The CX-90 pulled up right when I was about to drive out with the Genesis, and I almost switched. But I stuck with the G80 since I figured it was a bit of an anomaly in the fleet.
