The cost of a rental car will vary depending on what city you’re in.
The cost of a rental car will vary depending on what city you’re in. For example, if you are renting a compact car in Honolulu, it’s going to be much more expensive than if you were renting the exact vehicle in San Francisco or Los Angeles.
The cost also depends on what type of vehicle is available for rent at that particular location and whether or not there are any additional fees associated with booking online (if so).
A smaller, less-used car will cost less than a more extensive, more-popular model.
If you want a small, less-used car that costs less than a larger, more popular model, you can save money by renting. This is because most insurance companies will charge lower rates for smaller cars.
Smaller vehicles are also less reliable and prone to break down or be damaged in an accident than larger ones. They’re also more likely to be stolen and injured in an accident than larger vehicles because they’re designed for short distances (like city driving).

Be sure to ask about the extra things you may want — the rental company may offer these, or you can buy them yourself.

Make sure you know the exact mileage you’re allowed to drive.
When you rent a car from an agency or company, they’ll give you a booklet that tells you the rules. Before driving, you should always read this booklet and note any restrictions on how far away from home you can go or how much fuel is allowed in your tank (for example, no more than 20% of your total fuel capacity). If there are any surprises in there, ask them about them!
Be ready for surprises at the end of your trip.
Remember, rental cars are always different from their owners. If you’re planning a trip and want peace of mind knowing your vehicle will be in good shape when you get back home, then it’s essential to know what to expect when renting a car.
Rented cars are only sometimes what they seem.
It’s important to remember that not all rental cars are the same. Some companies will charge you for highway insurance, maintenance, and toll passes. If you’re traveling in Hawaii, this can add up quickly!
To avoid these charges, consider renting from reputable companies with good reviews online before leaving home so that you know what to expect when picking up your vehicle.
