For rules on driving in New York, see DRIVING.

All the major national companies, and a few local, offer rentals in NY.

Costs: The rates are highly variable. Many discounts are available to members of various groups, corporate plans and at different times. Firms will either give you restricted or unrestricted mileage. For restricted mileage, there will be a certain amount of miles allowed for the time period. Every mile beyond that will cost an additional $0.20-0.30 per mile.
A one day rental during the week is most expensive and costs from $50 to $80. A one week rate costs from $200 to $270. The cheapest rates are on weekends and range from $50 to $150.

TYP Hint: Several websites offer discount car rentals. They negotiate lower rates with major rental firms. Sometimes these rates are lower than other discounts, such as AAA or company plans, and sometimes they are not. Shop around for good rates.

Eligibility: In general you need a valid drivers licenses with photo and a major credit card. The age requirement for most auto rental firms is a minimum of 25 years. In some cases, those under 25 & above 21 can rent a car, but then there is an extra charge.

Extra Insurance:Collision and other insurance coverage is optional and not included in the basic rates. If you are a stranger driving a strange car in a strange city with crazy drivers, it may be worth the peace of mind to spring for the extra cost. But check with your insurance company and your credit card company for their coverage.

Gasoline: The normal practice is to refill the tank with regular lead-free gasoline before you return the car. Otherwise, they charge an extra amount for gas. However, given the relative lack of gas stations in NYC, it may be easier just to return the car and let them fill the tank. Just don't be surprised at the extra cost.
