Labor Day Weekend is right around the corner, and I could not be more excited. I am taking a little trip and everything is all planned out except one last detail: the rental car.Renting a car can be so fun because it is like adopting a driving alter-ego. In every-day life you may not be able to trade in your Kia for a Lexus, but during your vacation you can drive your fantasy car all you want. So while your at it, might as well make it a convertible.
On the other hand, cheap car hire seems to be the more conventional way to rent a car. Car rental companies tend to rent out the more practical models of sedans and coupes than they do the luxury models. It all depends on your needs. If you have a lot of passengers traveling with you, rental SUVs are economical because you don't have to rent multiple cars and you only have to deal with the poor gas mileage for a couple days.
With so many car rental companies out there, I decided to see what other AOL Search users were searching for to guide me in my quest for a rental car. Our top searched list of car rentals includes a lot of companies that each have something different to offer. Number one on our list, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, offers to pick renters up with their rental car. Budget, number 3 on the list, offers Budget truck rentals where you can rent larger vehicles, like trucks and vans, if you need to move or tow something for a day.
One of the easiest ways to rent a car is by visiting a travel site. They offer travel packages that can also include cheap car rentals. You can also check with your auto club for a discount. A lot of clubs have their own rental car agreements, like AAA car rental.
Good or bad: tell us about your car rental experience. You can find more about car rentals on AOL Search.

I don't see E-Z Rent-a-Car http://tinyurl.com/ezrental on that list and they aren't in every city in the country, but whenever I'm in a city where the are located I always rent my cars from them. Their cars are always new models, in great shpae and I have found them to be the cheapest of all the rental car companies. I book my rental car with them online, it's an easy site to work with and it always goes qiuck and smooth when I pick up or drop off my rental cars and their people are very friendly and helpful. http://tinyurl.com/ezrental
