I never have tried it, but wondering if anyone else has ever done a rental car reimbursement (not during ITU - just on a regular deviation)??

As the soup nazi would put it---"NO CAR FOR YOU!"
FedEx doesn't want the insurance liability that goes with using rental cars instead of surface transportation. The surface transportation should be a separate "accepted fare" and not be included in the airline fare.
