How's AVIS rental cars?

Does anyone have experience with them in Orlando? We used National last time, no problems, but can get a better price with Avis this time. Any pros or cons? Thanks!

National and Avis both usually feature General Motors Vehicles. They should be comparable.

We rented a premium this month through Priceline and the ressie was with Avis.

At the counter, they upgraded us to a mini-van which had a built-in car seat - the van had only 5,000 miles and was full of bells and whistles!

The service was SO quick and friendly - bing, bang, gone!

AVIS is excellent in Orlando, the counter is very close to the bagage claim, the cars are just outside the door, don't need a transport to get the car.
Both times were upgraded, reserved a sub-compact car, and the first time I got a Cavalier for the same price, the second time got a Montecarlo (full size) for the same price.
The return of the car is very easy, and fast.
The best was that was never asked for a credit card for the ressie (both times in the avis.com), they only asked me for it in the counter.

Thanks for the responses! Everything sounds good! Thanks again, I knew I'd get good info on these boards!
