Ultimate Choice was surprisingly fully stocked on New Years Eve. PIT has been the best location I've seen at spreading the wealth around in terms of giving Gold and FS a decent selection. Last night FS had a Dodge Challenger Hemi, albeit with a cloth interior, with 7000 miles. PC and FS each had a couple 300s. All three sections had several Taurus Limiteds along with some Impalas. In fact I only saw one or two small sedans on the lot, everything else was a full-size, premium, or SUV.
That said, there was nothing too special, but everything was fully stocked and each tier had a good selection.

I only got a quick glance at the lot on Saturday night but there was really nothing interesting other than a 300 S. Everything else was standard-issue Nissans, Kias, etc. You know it's bad when a Q50 is one of the paid upgrades.

Things were slightly better on Sunday night. PC had a Q50 and a Q70, Pacifica Limited, Challenger Hemi, and two Camaros. Five Star and Gold were the standard fare. Upgrades were a Lincoln Navigator (the new model, first I've seen it on a rental lot) and a Land Rover Discovery.

Most of the rental companies were sold out Monday evening and it showed on Hertz's lot. It was completely empty except for two minivans in Gold when I walked through. Employees were bringing up new cars. Since this location only has one exit gate there was a line of 3-4 cars waiting to get out which could've easily taken 20 minutes to get through. Glad I wasn't actually renting with Hertz.

PIT on Saturday night was nothing to write home about, other than a Jeep Wrangler in PC. Everything else was mostly Kia Sorento, Chevy Malibu, and other standard Hertz fare. Didn't get a good look at the other sections but they looked to be the same.
Upgrades were a 2019 Lincoln Navigator and a Mercedes GLE.

PIT was nicely stocked on Sunday evening. PC had an Infiniti Q60, Chrysler Pacifica Limited, Jeep Cherokee Limited, Ford Taurus Limited, Dodge Challenger Hemi.
Five Star had a Chrysler 300S, Ford Explorer XLT, and a couple small SUVs.
Gold had a Chrysler Pacifica, Nissan Pathfinder, Ford Explorer XLT, Ram 1500 Classic.
Everything else was standard Hertz fare. It's nice to see Hertz spreading some of the larger and/or nicer cars across all three tiers.

Very uninteresting selection at PIT in the late afternoon. PC had a 300, Taurus Limited, and Pacifica Limited. All were >15,000 miles. The rest of the cars in PC were a Corolla(!), Sentra(!), an old model Camry, and other nondescript cars. Five Star and Gold were mostly empty.
