Hi,
Me and my wife are planning with a friend from NY to take a RoadTrip from NY - LA. We have 4 weeks to do this. We are situated in Europe and we will be visiting our frind in NY then head out on our trip but we have major issue regarding the car. We have couple of options :
1. Rent a car and drop it off in LA
- drop-off fees are very high
- we need to pay flight ticket back
+ we have more time for vacation
2. Rent a car from NY and drop it in NY again
- it's going to very long trip
- VERY high fees from the rental company if you leave the state at least at Enterprise rental company, I guess they have transponder so i can't take it out anyway
+ nice since we could choose to differente routes. one on the way to LA and one different one on the way back to NY
3. Buy a car in NY and use it back and forth to LA
- Time consumming to find a car
- Time consumming to sell the car
- Need insurrance, registration and inspection
- Can't really trust car for 2500USD that it will keep running for 6500 mil
+ Good the car can be sold again at a resonable price
+ Cheaper than rental
these are some of the things that i found. What do you guys think ? What's the best option or are there any other options ?
Hope to hear from u
