Is the Hotwire rental from unknown provider uncancelable rate gone?

I need a car rental in BOS but am not seeing anything other than normal rentals and "Special" cars at Hot.wire.  The "Special" car may be any size compact and up, but specifies the rental company.  I see no option to pre-pay an uncancelable reservation for a discount.  Has HOT.WIRE dropped this feature and ceded that market to PRICE.LINE?

The 'opaque' rental market is still available thru HOTWIRE, but the dates or location you're looking for may have limited (or no) 'opaque' inventory.

Our BiddingHelper.com now shows Car Rental results as well, so using the CARS radio button in the search form i just searched Boston for 4/26-4/27 and see 'Hot Rate' rentals available, so it is likely the dates you're searching for are high demand OR double check that you selected an airport location (the drop down suggestions and BiddingHelper.com use airport codes along with the city names to ensure that you're looking at airport results)... searching there for 4/26-4/27 you can confirm that you're still able to see opaque car offers.

What are the dates (and pick-up/drop-off times) you're searching for?

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.
