Question 3

What kind of rental car should I get for DeKalb?

Accepted Answer

Downtown or off-road driving? If you chose the former for your upcoming vacation in DeKalb, we'd recommend a fuel-efficient car like a hybrid, compact, or an economy. They're easy on your budget and terrific at maneuvering in and out of traffic. But if you chose the latter, a four-wheel drive will be more suitable.

You'll be glad to hear that there's a great range of both luxury and economy rental vehicles available in DeKalb.

If you're splurging, why not pick up an SUV with all the bells and whistles, or perhaps a fancy medium-sized sedan? Otherwise, if you just need a car to get you from A to B at the cheapest price possible, you're better off going with a no-frills compact vehicle (or something else that won't burn a hole in your wallet).
