When You Can’t Travel by Saddle, Give Hertz’ Horsepower a Try… For a Special USEF Price

by Sarah Lane | Feb 16, 2005, 4:57 AM

As equestrians, we’re no strangers to travel. Our horses aren’t either. We travel for competitions, for business, and on chance occasions when sunshine lures us out of the barn, we sometimes travel just for fun. Regardless of our reasons, we know what we want on these trips. We want value. We want no-hassle solutions. We want peace of mind. And whenever possible, we want simple one-stop answers that offer all of the above!

Try renting a car from Hertz. Trips become a little more user-friendly when you find out you can pick up a car at more than 7,200 locations worldwide, with a USEF Purchasing Program savings of up to 20%. Like all of our Purchasing Program partners, Hertz bears a stamp of reliability and a decades-old business built on a foundation of trust. Add to that, Hertz’ partnership with the USEF is one of its longest association relationships yet—more than 20 years strong.

“Hertz and USEF share similar values in providing vision and leadership in the industries they serve. Our longstanding, exclusive partnership with USEF has allowed us to offer USEF members significant discounts by way of the Hertz Member Savings Program,” says John Fulginiti, Director of Membership Programs for Hertz.

If you’ve ever rented from Hertz before, you already know they offer great value, but you may not know they offer lots of added rental options that other companies don’t. Hertz offers Sirius Satellite Radio, the NeverLost® on-board navigation system, computerized driving directions and covered return centers. Your options don’t end with standard four-doors and economy cars either. Hertz has an exclusive program called the Prestige Collection. We’re talking Jaguars. Lincolns. Cadillacs. Volvos. Land Rovers. All the added extras to add a touch of class to any trip.

“It’s a very competitive program,” says Fulginiti. “Customers remember that we’re committed to equestrian sport and they keep coming back.”
