Rent a car in USA!! - GoFuckYourself.com

ServerMaze-Patrik · 12-29-2003, 06:46 PM

A few friends and I are planning on doing a few weeks in the US sometime during 2004 and I have som questions for you....

What is the standard age to rent a car in the US??

I heard something about 25 and that will not work for us

Is there any other laws I should think of??? insurance and other things???

You have to be 25... bottom line. Insurance and just about everything else can be purchased at the rental place.

Depends where you are... anything over 100MPH and you'll be paying out the ass.

PimpMeNot · 12-29-2003, 06:54 PM

21 to 25.
Most major tourist destinations have those place where you can rent a car if you're under 25 or have no credit card, however it will be high cash deposit and mandatory Insurance at around $15 a day.
Also, in some cities the rental age will be higher; such as New York.

You do not need to be 25 to rent car, unless there is different law for people out of country. You can rent at 18. But luxury cars at 25, so unless you HAVE to have luxury car, then it can be ok.

Roger · 12-29-2003, 06:56 PM

too much traffic, use the taxi.

axelcat · 12-29-2003, 06:56 PM

thats a stupid rule why do you have to be 25

I'm sorry but you're wrong. Show me ONE place in the USA that allows you to rent ANY car at the age of 18. Some places do allow you to rent at the MINIMUM of age 21, but you do have a heavy deposit and mandatory insurance.

I'm only 20 myself, so I have researched this..

because people under 25 are not mature

i think it is soemthing about insurance shit man and as said by others dont think it is 25 anymore and a loop hole to the 25 back in the day was be married

good luck on your journey and dont speed to much fines cant get costly

Ben-MensNiche · 12-29-2003, 07:08 PM

Some places in some states are 21, but you won't get a nice car, you'll just get something basic...I had the same problem when I booked my car when I came over to Canada. I booked it with my agent in London, and when I got here, they told me I couldn't have the car my agent had booked. I was pissed and flipped out, eventually they gave me the car.

ServerMaze-Patrik · 12-29-2003, 07:15 PM

that might work

we are going to Orlando for the Paintball World Cup...a great game by the way

Sarah_Jayne · 12-29-2003, 07:20 PM

don't speed and you don't have to worry about the fine.

xanx · 12-29-2003, 07:22 PM

If your under 25 don't you have to have a note from your mom ?

..j/k I think all you have to do is get special insurance

Depends where you are going i'm sure there is places that will let you rent the car, but it will cost you a little more if you are under 25.

yeppers, insurance will be higher, so will the deposit. you can rent a car when you get off the plane so be sure to have a major credit card handy - that's a must

pornguy · 12-30-2003, 09:42 AM

I know that with Budget rent a car, you can be 21 but you will pay a higher price and you have to pay for the coverage for the car. And that is a daily non refundable fee.. But if you have not spent much time driving here and you are going to be in a major city, it will be worth it. If some ass hole hits the rental car while you have it, you dont have to worry about it...

Just get online with the rental companies. They have the rules listed..

Budget Dollar Avis Hertz

Those are the biggest on the east coast!

angeleyes · 12-30-2003, 09:44 AM

Get the Insurance! I learned the hard way as I'm paying for damage to a Ford Explorer from an accident over a year ago.

It wasn't my choice not to get the insurance, my old boss was too cheap... the company folded and I got left holding the bill even though I didn't even cause the accident.

Vitasoy · 12-30-2003, 11:19 AM

some places it's 21 and over and you must have a credit card

just look around./
