My contract rate is such that Midsize-Full Size is about the same price, and then Premium is about twice as much. I do have a few more rentals left on the magic code though.

Do they even have anything decent there?

True.

So, I am seeking a new goal. Once this thread is over.

During the week, the premiums can be more than $2 a day more than full-size depending on the corporate rate, but on the weekend, even the generic CO discount seems to return rates about $2/day higher than full-size, depending on location.

In fact, this week was on the magic code. On previous rentals at BTR with that code, I've had a nice Infiniti. This week, a d@mn soccer Mom Sienna. Thanks National. I can't wait to see the "We hope you've enjoyed your Executive Elite upgrade" message on the bottom of the receipt when I return the car on Friday morning.
