As of 2/12/14: We've had quite a few "Hey, come use this AWD. It's great" type of posts. When the AWD doesn't give a good discount, but is only posted to try to get renters to use the AWD of someone so the poster can earn free days from their Avis Corporate account. From here out, please put the company/trade group/etc that's associated with the AWD or we'll delete the post to keep it on-topic here.

Well since Florence is in none of these countries that will not concern him, will it?
We tend to drive on the left side - if we drive on the wrong side we have head on collisions. I suppose we had also better add Australia, New Zeeland, Ireland, and Japan to that list,

I'm sure there are more.

You don't "learn" to drive automatic - there is nothing to learn
. This is not "when in Rome..." thing, i just want a more practical product. And i have no problem with others using manual.. or rotary phones... or sundials... 
The automotive industry spent many years and many millions of $ improving cars to make them automatic and I would like to take advantage of the end result.

All of these expenditures were to accommodate the lazy American consumer because it was such a large market. Thankfully, much of the world isn't like the U.S.
Pucci (not quite the same w/o the Galore, is it?) is right. Man up and learn to drive a manual or shell out the extra money for the convenience.
On one side, I can argue that they should be more consumer friendly and accommodate American tourist. On the other hand maybe we Americans should learn to adapt a bit when we travel to other countries. After all, immersing yourself in the culture is part of the experience.
Do you really need a car? I don't even own one here and I live in the suburbs. Why not consider getting a rail pass that will get you around Italy? Public transportation is so much better in Europe.

can I find out if I am eligible for a code?
I posted this basic question in the regular Avis forum, it more-than-likely should have been posted here. I saw an Avis code D005927, and after trying other codes, this came up w/the lowest rental price(2 weeks from EDI, booked online from the States). I cannot find who is eligible for this code. Is there a way to check on which codes a person is eligible for?

googled it, found this. D005927 "The National Association of Bancruptcy Trustees". A number of people have used the code and have not been asked for an ID, could be worth a shot. Thanks for the practical advice.

When you use an upgrade code, say it is from a coupon, and you book online, should you just book in one class lower than you really would like to reserve? I tried that with the upgrade code mentioned a few postings above this, for a European rental. The price came out higher than when I did not use the coupon.

I have been using AWD# X154043 which has given me up to 50% off depending on where and what I am renting. It always seems to be the lowest rates though. I have been using this code for years and have never been asked for an ID or questioned about using it. Love this forum!

Just sayin'.
I personally don't mind if he is trying to increase the usage - as long as it saves me money
