National/Alamo tend to have the following as "full size"

1. Malibu.. (LOTS OF THESE)
2. Impala (good amount of these)
3. Corrolla (yes folks LOL!)
4. JW Jettas

Their website classifies the Corolla as a mid-sized. We have a full-sized car reserved for April. I own a Corolla and won't accept that as a full-sized car. I'd be happy to take a mini van even though I have lots mileage on me!

Not having rented a car in a lot of years I can't see these four cars all being in the same category. Logically Corolla and Jetta are about the same size, Malibu a bit larger, then Impala.

I would NEVER accept a Corolla or Jetta as full size.

Sorry I meant to say Camry. Got my Toyotas confused LOL!

(And the new Camry is just a sad car IMHO reminds me more of a Corolla which is why I got confused I think)

I did some digging. Other options

Hyundia Sonata
VW Passat MAY be a full size. Classification seems to vary based on "features" Stripped it's a full size, with the cool features it's a level up

At the end of September we got a Dodge avenger off the full size lot

WE just returned Friday and had a weekly rental from National at the car care center. We reserved a mid-size and they gave us a choice of a VW Passat (full size) or a Nissan Altima. We took the Passat for gas mileage as we had to put on 200 miles on this trip. Nice drive and the receipt says it was a full size.
