rental cars
Did you know that you could practically rent any type of car that you want? Going on vacation to Hawaii? Rent a nice sporty convertible to fully soak-up the sun and enjoy the island experience. Going camping in the desert? Rent a 4x4 off-road vehicle and make your own roads. Taking the family on a cross-country drive? Rent a van/S.U.V/R.V, and have all the space you need... and then some.
Rental cars offer a solution to the problem of having to go somewhere without your car. It is well worth the reasonable costs to be able to have a car at your disposal, no matter where you travel in the world. The cost of rental cars can range from minimal to extreme, dependent on what you're looking for, where you're going, and what you're going to be doing. That is to say that it would be considerably cheaper to rent a Ford Taurus for a week than it would to rent a Hummer for the same amount of time, simply because you're choosing to rent a much more expensive car. The rest of the costs are more or less made up from the type of insurance package you choose to cover yourself with, and the number of people who will be driving the car. Domestically, most rental car companies require the renter to be 25 years of age, however they will generally allow 21-24 year olds to rent as long as they pay a higher fee.
Rental cars are generally cast into 1 of 13 categories, those being Economy/mini, Compact, Intermediate, Standard, Full-size, Premium, Luxury, Convertible, Sports Car, Minivan, Full-size Van, Sport Utility, and Pickup Truck. The cheapest choice is generally going to be the Economy/mini category of car.
