Ok, just booked a trip to Ft Myers in August (unfortunatly, its a budget trip, so i will not be visiting the world ). Anyhow, Im looking at car rentals and Im in a deadlock with a dession. I can go with the Emerald Aisle or Dollar Full Size SUV for teh same price...Anyone use dollar lately or know anything about them? I have rental credit's built up with National, so Im leaning towards them, but an SUV is a pretty tempting offer

If you are not off-roading, nor looking to take the trip out of the stated budget category, I would lean to National. Not much need for an SUV in Fort Meyers in August (actually, not much need for one in Chicago in January ). JMO

do you have to go to the counter at dollar? If so, definitely stick with natl.

Thanks for your opinons. I just booked with good ole' national on the EA. Rates pretty high ($230 with taxes) but it should come down alot when new codes are released...

I use National at RSW a lot. Normally the Emerald Aisle has just what you ordered - intermediates. Once I got a small SUV as I got in very late and the aisle was empty. This aisle is not like MCO that often offers many upgrades. I have used Dollar there too with no problems. I have been sticking to EA this year to try to get qualified for Executive Aisle. Just might make it. Enjoy Fort Myers!

Thanks Niagara!! I heard that all the rental cars are in the parking garage now after the completion of the new terminal! I love not having to take a shuttle. I might consider paying a little more and using a double upgrade to get a minivan if upgrades are usually not available...
