National EE
LAX
Rented MidSize
Took 2015 Charger with <1000 miles
I have yet to rent from national (so I dont know how it works), why rent a full size when a midsize lets you pick anything from the ee aisle?

They had Chargers, camaros, one challenger with 16k miles and impalas. I try to look for the car with the lowest miles and the newest. I had the camaro last weekend and wanted a change. The charger is a great car i must say. Especially with <1k miles

But why reserve anything more than a midsize?

I took a 1-way out of Florida for $10 a day, so it didn't matter to pick midsize or fullsize.

How you liking it?

It drove amazing last night on the highway
Just drove 12 hours up the I-95, it was a pretty fun drive  :)

Especially after first having a Mustang that locked up at 80mph. I was very happy to switch.

National  15 passenger van.
Back three rows are configured 1-2!
Very easy to move around in. Also driver is not so high up, so it feels like a minivan .
