I had a 2022 RAV4 that was classified as "IFDR". I thought it was just a typo.

Executive Elite section was pretty sparse, but I managed to snag a GLA with 55k+
Saw a Q3/Q5 on its way in, but was pretty happy with the car I got.

Eg. IFAR vs IRAR

Fully Loaded but Meh selection.

Upgrade BMW 7 and a Range Rover

Went with Avis which was same exact price and better choices.

Executive aisle half-loaded, had usual cars like fusion, 2x dodge charger / challenger, some minivan, ...
Upgrade section had Benz GLC3xx and Audi A3 quattro (with 8k miles), asked rep for the A3 - got it free of charge

That said it rattles like mad on SF/Bay roads :/

Haven't rented from here in about two years. Both rows were loaded yesterday 11/14. Couple Q5s, couple GLCs, GLA, Armada, Yukons, Vans everywhere, nicely loaded compared to my previous experiences.

Given recent reports, I was pretty disappointed on Thurs morning at SFO. Three Exec aisles were full but it was 2020 Compasses, 30 Malibus, some Chargers and lots of old model Rogues. The only new-ish vehicles were an Outback with Oregon plates, a Sorrento with Texas plates, and a few VW SUVs with 40ish-k miles on em.

There was a single Nissan Pathfinder, with just 1300 miles on it, so I grabbed it. I did another walk around and it was by far the best vehicle there.

The new year rush wasn't over yet. I was also there end of December and every SUV/van was getting pulled from the aisles to fulfill reservations. Ended up getting a XSE Camry. I went back on 1/6 and there were GLB, GLCs, Armadas, 4Runners, Grand Cherokees back on the aisle. I myself snagged a 2023 X5 xDrive45e with just 3K miles on it!
