Normally, the age limit for car rentals in Columbus is 21—the same as it is across the rest of the United States of America. Additionally, many suppliers charge an extra fee if you are under 25. Be sure to go over the rental agreement to figure out what the exact rate will be before you book your car.

Most countries require the driver to have insurance. You may be able to buy temporary coverage through the rental car supplier. Otherwise, as a U.S. citizen, you can also book Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com at checkout. Many credit cards (MasterCard, Visa, American Express, and Discover) will offer coverage. However, many of them have restrictions, such as not covering larger automobiles like premium models or some SUVs. Be sure to call and find out what kind of coverage is offered before you travel to Columbus.

Most suppliers give you a choice of fuel policies. Below is a list of the most common ones.

We advise a full tank policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank, and you should return it with a full tank of gas. For a cheaper rate, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car.

If you wish to see all that Columbus and maybe even the rest of New Mexico offers, you're going to need unlimited miles. You won't have to worry about extra charges if you decide to drive all over Columbus. Go over the fine print to be certain they are truly "unlimited."

Before you begin on your Columbus vacation, check a few things prior to leaving the car rental lot. It's important to:

• Check out your car and determine if there is any dents or scratches. If you notice any, mark it down on your paperwork
• Make you have a properly inflated spare tire, lug wrench, and jack in the trunk
• Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Get comfortable working the radio or entertainment features. You don't want any unneeded distractions in a new city
