Used them in Dallas in September 2013. Was a great experience. Went to Austin for the WEC race at COTA, and had a reservation for the Silvercar at Austin. Was originally scheduled to connect through Dallas and then fly to Austin. When I got to the airport, I was told that I could get to Dallas, but that all flights between Dallas and Austin were cancelled due to severe thunderstorms. I called the Silvercar store in Dallas and asked if they could switch my rental from Austin to Dallas, and they did. I flew to Dallas, picked the car (so easy and civilized), and drove to Austin. The weather report had been misleading. The severe thunderstorms were actually monsoons. There was standing water on the interstate and cars had spun off the road and into the median. Lots of accidents. I just motored on past them with the quattro system doing what it was supposed to. Had the factory nav system and AudiConnect, so I was able to stop in a parking lot and use the on-board wifi to get on line with my Mac to handle some real estate business. The nav system brought me to my hotel in Austin, back and forth to the track, and returned me to the Silvercar store at DFW with zero fuss and bother.

One price (plus all of the government/airport mandated fees), great product, reasonable pricing. I will not rent anything else if there is a Silvercar store nearby.
