Thanks!
QX50, sorry, fixed.
Nissan/Infiniti has lagged behind in the “everything turbocharged” bandwagon, presumably because they’ve been busy developing their new VC-Turbo engine (which will soon be in everything they offer if it proves reliable).

Eh, first time renting from CMH today, EE member. When I first spoke to the greeter about "something exciting" he said "good luck" (politely at least). Asked the guy for an A/Q3 or Explorer Sport, he said nope. I waited an hour, passing over Hyundai, Kia, base model F150s, minivans, couple QX50s, tons of Nissan Armadas, a few Suburbans and Excursions. Ended up getting a Durango from the 'locked' aisle behind EA as a compromise offered by the attendant when I saw the EE and EA aisles were emptying out and not being replenished. Plenty of Cadillacs and SUVs in the "locked" aisle. Also seems there is a dedicated row of cars on back wall for other purposes as mentioned in previous posts.
Overall worst selection I've experienced in my ~1 year membership, but I'm picky - if it doesn't have a turbo, I'm not interested.

This morning at around 9:30 am the Executive aisle had a base Corola, base Sentra, Santa Fe Sport, 4 Hyundai Tucsons, Fusion Hybrid, Nissan Frontier SV, Dodge Grand Caravan and a Lincoln MKX which I took. Emerald Aisle had 2 Mitsubishi Mirages. Who would pick those? Or the Corolla and Sentra from the Executive aisle.

Sounds like Corporate is still trying to live up to the shizzy reputation of this location under Midwest Car Corp...

The cars at this location generally have higher mileage than what I have seen at other locations. There was an Impala Premier last week with 52k miles.

At around 9:30 am today, picked up a Mustang Convertible with 22k miles from the Executive Aisle, I also saw a Beetle Convertible in the Emerald Aisle. I didn't pay attention to the rest of the cars, but looked to be mostly SUVs and vans.

The location seems to have rotated out most of the Chevrolet products, but seems to have rather limited inventory, and the customer service is still very poor and very slow at all interactions (check in and exit booth). I am talking like 10 minutes at the exit booth to process the rental. I have no CLUE how it can take that long. Definitely still felt like Midwest Car Corp.

Not much of a selection this past Monday in Executive. Mostly lower trim Altimas, with one low trim Maxima, a bunch of Hyundai SUVs, a few smaller Chevy SUVs, a Jeep Wrangler 4-door and one Cadillac XTS that was already claimed when I got there. Even had some Elantras out, which definitely didn't seem like an Executive Aisle product. Similar selection (minus the XTS) when walking through post-return.

Nice to see no more Chevy, Chevy, Chevy.......
ES selection much better than the past but still hard to find anything “nice”.
Couple months back asked the greeter is there was anything real nice and ended up with a new BMW X2.
Nice sporty ride but not good on rough road surfaces.
