Great, thanks. Last time I did a rental at LGA was ages ago and there was still a stupid two-shuttle system where the branded ones took you to one place and then an intra-terminal shuttle took you from there to the terminal, and I vowed never to do anything like that again when a $15-20 expensible Uber was a ready alternative.

Saturday April 20 at around noon.
The Emerald Aisle was under construction so I suspect they were allowed to take any cars on ES.
ES was filled with the usual rental SUVs but nothing "special" like BMWs, Mercedes. I saw a BMW 7 Series and XT5 parked in the Emerald Reserve section. However, there were a few Jeep Grand Wagoneers, a Tahoe (or Suburban), Expeditions for those who are looking for large SUVs. I ended up taking a Grand Cherokee 4Xe (but the fuel economy was bad).
Return lane - Ouch someone damaged a Challenger pretty badly.
ES - wanted to try this one

ES
Pretty comfortable ride to Rhode Island, but the fuel economy was not worth it. Averaged like 22MPG along the i95 to reach Rhode Island while on the XC 60 on the same route I got closer to 28-30MPG last month)
