Question 3

What kind of rental car should I get for Ann Arbor?

Accepted Answer

Sure, you can do Ann Arbor without a rental car. But with loads to discover here, having one would certainly make your getaway more fun and convenient. If you want to get out of the city and into some nature, pick a car rental with some power. A mid-size or full-size SUV will get you to the area's lakes in comfort and style. Rather spend a lot of your time in the city center? A mini or compact car will be your best bet. Maneuvering around busy streets and squeezing into tiny parking spaces will be less hassle with one of these.

What you go for will depend on how much you're willing to spend and what you're planning to do. Specialty and prestige vehicles offer unparalleled mod cons and comfort. If you're splashing out, why not go for an elite SUV, or perhaps a flashy mid-size sedan? Alternatively, if you're just after a car to whiz around town in at the cheapest price possible, we can help you out with an economy vehicle (or something else that's unlikely to break the bank).
