Goldman Sachs maintains a 'Neutral' on United Rentals (NYSE: URI) price target of $37.00 (from $36.00).

Analyst, Jerry Revich, said, "We reduce our 2012-14 EBITDA estimates by 4% on average driven by reduced pricing forecasts as softening used equipment values point to weaker pricing momentum and capex (see our September 5 note titled
“Rental fleet utilizations point to US Aerial Platform correction in 2013; Sell Oshkosh (NYSE: OSK)”). We have reduced our fleet size estimate by 3.5% in 2013 and 7% in 2014 as we expect URI to prudently cut capex, driving $580 mn of free cash flow in 2013."
