Default Car hire in Utah

Do you really think a 4wd is that important that late in the year? We will
be there the following week, March 18 thru 24, and the difference between a
4wd and a full size Fwd is huge, price wise. $233 more at the cheapest place
I could find.


Don't know about Utah and if necessary - but ask the rental agencies
if they have the AWD Subaru cars. We just skiied at Baker for a
couple days, driving from Seattle in between the snowstorms. I looked
at the 4WD prices and thought they were nuts - then Dollar said they
had AWD Subarus - and it was a midsize car price of $29 a day. It got
us through a bunch of snow each day up the mountain (17 mile drive to
closest accomodations!). When renting, I'll definitetly ask for them
since it was pretty cheap, AWD, and roomy.
