You never have to wash a rental car

As someone who doesn’t own a car and who doesn’t fancy driving, I am always excited to get the keys to a rental car. Driving a rental car forces me to remember the rules of the road, it allows me to catch up on all of the horrible talk radio that I can’t listen to as I ride my bicycle and it serves as a useful place to deposit trash while on a road trip. You can’t get away with denting a rental car and you sure as heck better leave the tank on full when you return it. But unlike your car at home you don’t have to worry much about your rental car collecting so much dirt that kids in the neighborhood write “tow me” with their fingers on the car window.

That is about the only advantage of having a rental car in my opinion. Otherwise they are little more than a necessary evil while you travel. If you would rather spend money on food, shopping and travel experiences than on securing a fancy car for your trip, you might want to check out the current deals at Thifty Rental Cars.
