Another lackluster day this afternoon. Sonata, F-150 XLT on the Aisle. Altima, Fusion, Challenger V6, Grand Caravan in Exec.
Was looking for a minivan but hate the Caravans so asked about a Pacifica pulled off and was told it's a different class now (8 passenger) and reserved. Ended up going down to Hertz and got a Pacifica Limited from the Gold section.

Yesterday a around noon Emerald Executive had 4-5 Chrysler and Dodge minivans, V6 Charger, Ford Fusioin, Camaro Convertible, Nissan Armada, Infinity version of the Pathfinder. I waited 5 minutes until they brought out another Camaro convertible and picked that. They brought out a couple more after that. I don't remember seeing anything remarkable in the Emerald Aisle.

Booked lux using free days.
Offered 3 series, 5 series, MKZ.
Asked for a 7 series and greeter let me take it.
Exec aisles were full but didn't get a glance. Saw a mustang 5.0 come out of the wash right into the aisle.

Arrived on Fri evening. Aisles were completely full and was offered anything I wanted off EA or ES. However, we needed a small SUV and the only one to be seen (among the sea of Altimas and Malibus) was a Nissan Rogue just returned and not yet cleaned. After speaking to the manager, they gave us a fully tricked out Jeep Cherokee Limited that had just been cleaned. ^

In my experience they are super stingy on weekends?

I was there in early August and missingcolours indicated, there is only one aisle with cars. It was fairly full at 10:30 am. I grabbed a Camary as I prefer a car with a similar set up to my own. I do one-way rentals to MRY about 10-15 times a year as I have family in that area and it is not easy to get a decent fare or connection to MRY. Best of luck.
