New to AVIS - GPS Question and Pontiac VIBE question - please help.

Hi,

I've been primarily a Hertz guy for a long time, but just reserved 5 or 6 Avis cars in the coming couple of weeks to check out the service and see if it was worth switching. If you could please let me know what your thoughts are on service differences that would be great, but I had a couple of specific questions...

I'm going to places that are cold and possibly snowy, so I'm renting SUV's... nearly all of them are Pontiac Vibes... is my assumption that they are the AWD versions a good one? When they say SUV, do they also mean 4/AWD?

Second, one thing that I noticed and thought cool about Avis is that the GPS system available is not a car mounted system, rather it is a handheld unit so not car model dependent (unlike H). What have people's experience been with these handheld units?

Thanks for your help!
