To better understand the entire rental market in America, Auto Rental News is conducting a business outlook survey of franchised and independent (non-corporate) auto rental operations in the United States.
The data and an analysis will be published in our annual Fact Book, mailing in December, where we will be able to make a comparison to results from the same survey in 2015.
We ask that only U.S. operators complete the survey by December 1.

This survey is completely anonymous and confidential, and does not ask for company or personal names. The results will only be used in aggregate and will not be shared with any source.
As a thank you for filling out the survey, all respondents will be entered in a drawing to receive one free registration to an upcoming Car Rental Show (no expiration).
For questions on the survey, email Chris Brown at chris.brown@bobit.com.
