This time in anticipation of traveling to Miami I tried to get a concierge service to find one for me, so I could not waste 2-3 hours. They came back with the same answer I told them we'd get - no dice.
I'll try to give more notice next time I guess, this time was only one or two days, though I'm not going to hold my breath for success. Outside of a few cities which I don't regularly travel to, there hasn't been a single PHEV realistically available for me to rent, ever.
I've tried talking to the various activists and advocates and others about this, but nobody seems to be able to do anything.
I think there is a possible business opportunity for the PHEV manufacturers to expand sales into rental fleets instead of allowing their product to be marginalized into various "test project" fleet deployments in "select cities".
Also, perhaps there would be a business opportunity for the credit card companies and associated concierge services to start getting aggressive about partnering with PHEV manufacturers to bring PHEVs for rent to those who want them.
