Sat evening:
ES seems to have fewer and fewer premium cars and SUV's lately. ES is starting to look like EA. ES had:
2-3 each: Altima, Accord, Camry, Malibus, Impala and Optima.
1 of Taurus Limited, Optima Hybrid, and Genesis.
EA had a '13 Fusion SE (with base engine), a 200 convertible, and the usual Malibus and Impalas.

Wed. Jan. 30, ~10pm: worse than DAY.
EA: Jetta, Jetta Wagon, misc. garbage (e.g. 200s)
ES: some small SUVs (don't want SUVs)
Passat: several low-trim versions
Altima: a few '13 models
some other ordinary stuff (Impala, Malibu, etc.)
Did my usual aimless exploring and saw the two G37xs parked near the garage/booth area. Went inside to ask and was quoted $30/day extra (from full size using 1-2-free days). Went for it.
I've driven the G37x a few times in the mid-west, but I should avoid it in the northeast, as it's too much fun.

I would have taken it if it wasn't for the fact that we just got over a foot of snow and I wanted something with better ground clearance.

Luxury: 328xi and 2 cars that should never be in Luxury: 2012 MKZ, Genesis

Where is the G37x in the ES all the time? I've only ever received it with a full size res. on a one-way out of CMH (Chevy dealer) and a new rental with the same car at CVG (as in drive in, close the rental, ask "can I keep the same car?", and leave with the same car).

It's not. He just likes to complain about National, especially the east coast locations.
