There was one in PC at PIT last year. I've driven one before, not impressed at all. It's a dressed up Tahoe. The new Expedition is better in every way.

I've seen it once or twice, but they usually carry the Nissan Armada or Infiniti QX80.

Do you guys think Hertz might showcase the new Chevy Blazer like how they did the Traverse?

Prerequisite; Picking up @MCO return @mia.
I will go for a L4 FRAR or R MVAR, what should I expect? Based on previous experiences in Florida they usually have tons of white Dodge Journeys and Dodge Caravans. Is that what I should expect?

Lasttime I was there PC was filled with Pacificas and Sienna's. As far as L4, its way more diverse I've noticed in Florida , Kia Sorento, Nissian Pathfinder, Honda Pilot, and on my last visit they'd gotten a large shipment of Buick Enclaves tagged K6

A Honda Pilot would be rare. Honda does not sell to fleets so the only way you'd find one is if it was one-wayed from a franchise.

Thx.

I got the same qoute for a FRAR and MVAR and based on FRAR choices I more lean towards a Pacifica (since that a new model for me).

Ive seen a minimum of 20-30 pilots since June of 2018 at multiple different locations(both airport/hle locations)

I had also recently spotted Crv and hrv at Las Vegas airport.
Crv was tagged as a L and Hrv as Q4

And franchise locations do not share fleet with corporate locations from what Ive been told. Ive seen a few oddball cars before like Hyundai Sonata 2.0T limited with panoramic sunroof and all the bells and whistle, also spotted a 2018 Camry XSE and transverse premier at different airport locations and they had Franchise written on their windshield when I asked about those cars Ive been told that they are not rentable to regular customers as they need to go back to the franchise location.

Luxury Sport (Group G4)
LSAR

(G4) Infiniti Q50

or similar
I was looking at a weekend rental in Tulsa, and this was available. Looks like it could also be the XTS. Any one rent either of these recently, and remember how they were equipped? Cheaper than standard Luxury but a little more than premium in price.

Q50 is more common with Hertz. It depends on whether you get the 2.0t smaller engine or 3.0t. It's a decent car, not terribly sporty. It is rear/all wheel drive and the 3.0t is pretty fast but has a CVT and steer-by-wire. Infotainment is horrendous. I haven't driven the XTS so can't comment on that.

I thought the Q50 had the 7-speed auto since its a RWD platform (CVT only on their FWD-based models)?
