Are you planning a vacation? Then you are probably wondering one thing about your car rental: which car? Today you can rent just about anything, from gas guzzling SUVs to mini sedans. There are several things that will help you decide on the perfect car rental for your trip.

First, consider your destination. Most of the time those going on vacation will rent a small to medium-sized sedan from the car rental company. A sedan is the perfect car rental option when traveling in areas that have well paved roads. If, however, you are planning an adventure trip that will take you off the beaten path, you may need to consider a different car rental option, such as a Jeep or other four-wheel drive vehicle. Make sure the car you rent is the right car for your destination.

Next, think about who and what you will be traveling with. If you are traveling with your family, consider renting a larger vehicle from your car rental dealer. You do not want to be crowded for your entire trip! A mini van is a great car rental option when traveling with a family. You will not only have plenty of room for all the people in your group, but also for your luggage. Trunk space is another consideration when thinking about car rental options. Some of the small sedans that car rental companies offer have very little trunk space. If you are going to have a substantial amount of luggage, make sure that your car has enough room for all of it! You do not want to try to enjoy your vacation destination with your suitcase in your lap!
