If you are the type of person who likes to put on a great image, this is not the car rental place for you. If you are the type of person who wants to save on the cost of a vacation, then this may be an answer for you.
State law requires that you carry car insurance and Car rental companies hold you responsible for any damage done to their cars so car insurance is a must. This company is about the least expensive in the county of San Diego and the price of renting the car and being fully insured is about the same as, or in some cases less than just renting a car from one of the major before paying the insurance premiums. In other words, you car rental expenses are cut in half. Another advantage is that this company allows you to take their cars in to Mexico and they carry Mexican Insurance as well.
Their cars are older and show signs of wear, but are basically reliable and not so expensive. Leave a Comment

I don't know anything about these taxi's, except that they are extremely unusual, and very cute! They didn't look particularly safe, being open like that, but I suppose they'd be fine for a lark!
If this isn't your ideal way of getting around, you could choose to travel in a pedi-cab, or in a horse-drawn carriage, or take the trolley. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Do you need a car in San Diego? NO, public transportation is efficient.
I finally rented Buick Century in Budget rent a car agency not to drive around San Diego but... over 11,500 miles around the West and the Southwest of the USA.
Why just at Budget? Hmmm... Linda's son helped me a lot. He called to many rent a car agencies and I finally chose Budget because of the best price (they gave me a good discount). I was looking for a comfortable midsize car with unlimited mileage with possible driving to Canada (I was going to drive at least to Vancouver).

We then met Sean at his National City office where his customer, Mr. Gary Cooper, was waiting with a limousine to take Sean, Debbie, several colleagues or Sean's from work, to Qualcomm Park for the ball game. This was the first time I had ever been in anything like a limousine in my life without somebody important dying first. The limo was a black Lincoln Continental. It could seat as many as 9 people comfortably and still have room for a bar and 2 T.V.'s. It was easily 30 ft. (9 m.) long. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Some people use hot air balloons, most use cars. What ever you use, be sure to have insurance. By law, it is mandatory and you never know what might get in your way.
Many credit cards offer insurance on a rented car so check with your credit card company to see if that is offered to you before paying the extra insurance. Also, your own personal car insurance company will cover a rental care (or any car you drive) while you are driving it. This can really save on the cost of renting a car.

California was built around cars, so public transportation is almost nonexistent.
The only good way to get around is by car. So rent a convertible, put the top down and check out the scene Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

That would depend on where you're coming from, of course!
Get a car - please! :-)
San Diego is a very big city, and to be able to get around you really need a car. While there is some public transportation, it's not very convenient. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

I had a car and I had no problems getting around. Not beacause I am an excellent driver, but because it is very difficult to get lost. There is one main highway (No. 5) that goes from Tijuana through downtown in direction of L.A. and it is one orientation. The other one is ocean. I was also impressed by quality of roads, how easy is to find what you are looking for. They have great signs.
I only had to pay for parking in downtown, and it was around $5 - whole day. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

You can drive to San Diego and throughout California but it is best to fly there and then rent a car.
It is a 'driving culture place' and if you don't
have a car....you won't be able to get around as easily if at all!
The best way to get around would be by car. It is definately a 'driving culture' place. They have a trolley system but it is not very extensive. The buses take hours to get places that take only 15 minutes by car! Rent a car and you can go anywhere! Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home
