Is it worth getting unlimited miles?

Unlimited mileage is a good choice for travelers who don't want to worry about incurring any extra charges with the distance they drive. Just make sure that your policy really provides unlimited miles. Check the details on mileage limits before you book.

Before you leave the lot

• Walk around the car and be sure there is no dents or scrapes. Be sure to make note of it on the paperwork, or you may get charged for it
• Check the trunk to determine if the spare is inflated and the jack and lung wrench are there
• Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Figure out how to work the radio or entertainment features. You don't want any unneeded distractions in a new city
