Hertz NeverLost Launches Online Trip Planning

Plano, Texas (PRWEB) February 15, 2008 -- After completing a successful trial period, Online Trip PlanningTM is now available in the Hertz NeverLost® in-car navigation system. It's the company's latest enhancement to the rental car industry's first in-car navigation system. This service allows Hertz customers to plan their trips entirely online from the convenience of their home or office. They simply go to www.neverlost.com, enter their trip information, save it to a personal USB storage device and insert it into the Hertz NeverLost system.
