I need to go to Texas in July. (I live near Tulsa, Oklahoma). I have 157,000 miles on my Chevrolet Malibu LS and it runs great now (however, the gas mileage is not as good as it used to be, obviously), but it may go out tomorrow or go out two years from now. Should I buy AAA coverage, get another tune-up for good measure (last had one at 120,000 miles), and drive my own car — or should I go through a rental car company and rent a car to drive down there? I’d like to hear some opinions from you folks. Thanks in advance.
If I rent, I plan to use Enterprise (whom I’ve used several times before and have been happy with them) … there is one about 1/2 mile away from me and they don’t charge for extra mileage as long as the car stays in "bordering states" (and that includes Texas).
