Smarter Car Renting

Here are car rental tips from the road trip-seasoned editors of RoadsideAmerica.com:

•  Car Types: When selecting a car type, remember it's not just about how cool you'll appear. The car selection page details show an average of how many people and how many pieces of luggage can comfortably fit in each car type. Pay attention to the specifics to be certain they meet your needs before booking.

•  Fear of the Unknown: Unfamiliar with the streets of Avondale? Consider adding a GPS navigation system to your rental. GPS provides turn-by-turn directions to a number of Avondale attractions and businesses, and is offered by almost all Avondale car rental agencies. The GPS helps you navigate like some mythical Greek God of Navigation! You can also add your own portable GPS on your handy windshield sucker, but remember to take it all with you when you turn in the car at the end of your trip.

•  Book your reservation in advance. Rates can vary drastically, even for the same rental car in Avondale Arizona. By booking your car early, you can avoid last minute rate increases. It can also help assure your desired vehicle-type will be available at high demand car rental locations.
