Hertz must have had thousands of cars on the lot, yet NO manual transmissions. I don't understand why they can't provide stick shifts, especially in California where the emission laws kill the acceleration. I hope they're happy, because they lost my future business. I have found also that the exception is National. They have delivered what they promised. Steve Hirsch {allegra!,decvax!brunix!} rayssd!sth
